Btrfs: dir_inode_operations should use btrfs_update_time also
Commit 2bc5565286121d2a77ccd728eb3484dff2035b58 (Btrfs: don't update atime on
RO subvolumes) ensures that the access time of an inode is not updated when
the inode lives in a read-only subvolume.
However, if a directory on a read-only subvolume is accessed, the atime is
updated. This results in a write operation to a read-only subvolume. I
believe that access times should never be updated on read-only subvolumes.
To reproduce:
# mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/dm-3
(...)
# mount /dev/dm-3 /mnt
# btrfs subvol create /mnt/sub
Create subvolume '/mnt/sub'
# mkdir /mnt/sub/dir
# echo "abc" > /mnt/sub/dir/file
# btrfs subvol snapshot -r /mnt/sub /mnt/rosnap
Create a readonly snapshot of '/mnt/sub' in '/mnt/rosnap'
# stat /mnt/rosnap/dir
File: `/mnt/rosnap/dir'
