Subject: [PATCH 05/11] fs: return I_DIRTY_* and allow error returns from inode_update_timestamps
Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2025 09:37:48 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251223003756.409543-6-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251223003756.409543-1-hch@lst.de>

Change the inode_update_timestamps calling convention, so that instead
of returning the updated flags that are only needed to calculate the
I_DIRTY_* flags, return the I_DIRTY_* flags diretly in an argument, and
reserve the return value to return an error code, which will be needed to
support non-blocking timestamp updates.
