Paulo Alcantara 110fee6b9b smb: client: fix missing timestamp updates with O_TRUNC
Don't call ->set_file_info() on open handle to prevent the server from
stopping [cm]time updates automatically as per MS-FSA 2.1.4.17.

Fix this by checking for ATTR_OPEN bit earlier in cifs_setattr() to
prevent ->set_file_info() from being called when opening a file with
O_TRUNC.  Do the truncation in ->open() instead.

This also saves two roundtrips when opening a file with O_TRUNC and
there are currently no open handles to be reused.

Before patch:

$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt -o ...
$ cd /mnt
$ exec 3>foo; stat -c 'old: %z %y' foo; sleep 2; echo test >&3; exec 3>&-; sleep 2; stat -c 'new: %z %y' foo
old: 2025-10-03 13:26:23.151030500 -0300 2025-10-03 13:26:23.151030500 -0300

After patch:

$ mount.cifs //srv/share /mnt -o ...
$ cd /mnt
$ exec 3>foo; stat -c 'old: %z %y' foo; sleep 2; echo test >&3; exec 3>&-; sleep 2; stat -c 'new: %z %y' foo

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
