An update to the inode ctime typically requires the latest clock
value possible. The exception to this rule is when there is a nfsd write
delegation and the server is proxying timestamps from the client.
When nfsd gets a CB_GETATTR response, update the timestamp value in the
inode to the values that the client is tracking. The client doesn't send
a ctime value (since that's always determined by the exported
filesystem), but it can send a mtime value. In the case where it does,
update the ctime to a value commensurate with that instead of the
current time.
If ATTR_DELEG is set, then use ia_ctime value instead of setting the
timestamp to the current time.
With the addition of delegated timestamps, the server may receive a
request to update only the atime, which doesn't involve a ctime update.
Trust the ATTR_CTIME flag in the update and only update the ctime when
it's set.
