NFS: fix nfs_verify_change_attribute
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We always want to check that the verifier and directory
cache_change_attribute match. This also allows us to remove the 'wraparound
hack' for the cache_change_attribute. If we're only checking for equality,
then we don't care about wraparound issues.
