OTOH, /me fishes out the discussion between mfasheh & zygo where they
discuss changing btrfs to avoid [cm]time updates on dedupe:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6683161/

So... <shrug> I'm willing to preserve the 'dedupe doesn't update
timestamps' behavior even though we're definitely changing di_nextents
(and possibly di_cowextsize).

(Though, you may note, I didn't write any code to update the timestamps
in the original patches, so clearly I'm not all that passionate either
way. :P)
