From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx>
Timestamps are not updated right now, so programs looking for
timestamp updates for file modifications (like rsync) will not
detect that files have changed. We are also accessing the source
data when doing a copy (but not when cloning) so we need to update
atime on the source file as well.
