So, this is the new case when ->dirty_inode() is called via generic_update_time()?
Did you research whether you can detect that case also by looking at the flags parameter?
I'd give I_DIRTY_TIME a try. This way you could get at least rid of the mutex_is_locked()
usage.

Okey, after a reading, I'm afraid I can not think a better idea
out. The flags between *old* cases and the *new* case can possiblly
be same. Then we can't use the flags to filter the new case from old
cases.

But I think I can append a patch to add a support for lazytime here:
	if (flags == I_DIRTY_TIME)
		return;

Thanx
