vfs: remap helper should update destination inode metadata
Extend generic_remap_file_range_prep to handle inode metadata updates when remapping into a file. If the operation can possibly alter the file contents, we must update the ctime and mtime and remove security privileges, just like we do for regular file writes. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
