Not true, in the age of NO_HZ...
While nanosecond time is real on some hardware platforms,
I don't know of any hard disk filesystem that does metadata
updates at that level of granularity and guarantees distinct
timestamps between writes at extremely short intervals.
Even SSD performance would suck if we did that.
The filesystem mod-time might have nanoseconds in it, but
that does not mean 2 writes 100 nanoseconds apart will have
different mod-times.
