(this should be fine on xfs, jfs, ext4, btrfs and other fs with 100nanosecond
or better timestamps, or perhaps 1 microsecond depending on how you are setting
timestamps).   Since cifs is caching the timestamp it sets to the server, if
running on a filesystem which can't support saving accurate timestamps, you can
disabling caching of stat info (echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LookupCacheEnabled).

Special casing ext2 and ext3 timestamps would help the client be able to
recognize this - as would an operation to get the superblock time mask (over
the network) but turning off metadata caching is easier.
