This should probably be in fs/inode.c as:

int file_modified_async(struct file *file, int flags)

and then file_modified() can simply become:

int file_modified(struct file *file)
{
	return file_modified_async(file, 0);
}

or even:

int file_modified_async(struct file *file, bool async)

int file_modified(struct file *file)
{
	return file_modified_async(file, false);
}

to avoid piecing this together specifically in xfs (as Dave mentioned
this is all pretty generic).
