PATCH 1/1 btrfs: update timestamps on truncate()

truncate() vs. ftruncate() differ in the VFS; truncate() doesn't set (ATTR_CTIME | ATTR_MTIME), and it's up to the fs to do the timestamp updates if the size changes.

---

Hm, am I breaking the rules by updating the vfs inode fields before the transaction starts?

IMO it is ok since we'll modify these info in btree during a transaction.

thanks,
