Merge tag 'vfs-6.7.ctime' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull vfs inode time accessor updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This finishes the conversion of all inode time fields to accessor
  functions as discussed on list. Changing timestamps manually as we
  used to do before is error prone. Using accessors function makes this
  robust.

  It does not contain the switch of the time fields to discrete 64 bit
  integers to replace struct timespec and free up space in struct inode.
  But after this, the switch can be trivially made and the patch should
  only affect the vfs if we decide to do it"
