I really like this idea.
Consider the following "revision 2" of my proposal:
1) Add a function pointer "current_fs_time" to struct super_block.
2) Replace all calls of the form:
current_fs_time(sb);
with
sb->current_fs_time(sb);
3) Arrange for the default value to point to the current implementation.
These first three could be one patch. They change no functionality;
they just enable the next step.
Finally:
4) Add a mount option to cause sb->current_fs_time(sb) to use the
hi-res implementation.
