--- Comment #6 from Agata <chogata@moosefs.com> ---
Well, it's not a correct behaviour when it sets an arbitrary timestamp. As I
said - using "now" would be OK-ish. Using an arbitrary timestamp makes the
setattr indistinguishable from a user-made setattr, so it updates ctime
(because setattr performed a metadata change), which is wrong.

Best would be to not set anything :) FUSE leaves the atime/mtime/ctime handling
on the filesystem's side, why force it?
