Subject: [PATCH 05/10] fs: allow error returns from inode_update_timestamps
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2025 07:09:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251217061015.923954-6-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251217061015.923954-1-hch@lst.de>

Change flags to a by reference argument so that it can be updated so that
the return value can be used for error returns.  This will be used to
implement non-blocking timestamp updates.
