Most of the first part is also duplicated in itimes(). I'd like to
call itimes() (perhaps renamed) from xxx_update(), but this requires
reorganising UFS_UPDATE() to distinguish the cases where the atime
and mtime are just the current time (all cases except xxx_setattr()).
Perhaps the best reorganisation is to set the atime and mtime in
xxx_setattr() and clear IN_ACCESS, etc. to reflect the update being
performed, and not pass the atime and mtime to UFS_UPDATE().
