For operations that create vnodes on the server such as CreateFile,
MakeDir or Symlink, the server will store its own current time as
the mtime if the client doesn't pass in a time in the accompanying
StoreStatus structure.
If the server and client clocks are not well synchronized, the client
may see timestamps in the future or inconsistent dependency checks
with "make" for files that are not modified after creation:
make[2]: Warning: File 'arch/x86/kernel/apic/modules.order' has
modification time 0.14 s in the future
make[2]: warning: Clock skew detected. Your build may be incomplete.
This is already handled correctly for non yfs operations; also
set the mtime for the corresponding yfs operations.
Changes:
v3: Replace S_IRWXUGO with 0777, per checkpatch
v2: [dhowells] Merge the two xdr_encode_YFSStoreStatus*() functions together
