[PATCH] fuse: use jiffies_64
It is entirely possible (though rare) that jiffies half-wraps around, while a dentry/inode remains in the cache. This could mean that the dentry/inode is not invalidated for another half wraparound-time. To get around this problem, use 64-bit jiffies. The only problem with this is that dentry->d_time is 32 bits on 32-bit archs. So use d_fsdata as the high 32 bits. This is an ugly hack, but far simpler, than having to allocate private data just for this purpose. Since 64-bit jiffies can be assumed never to wrap around, simple comparison can be used, and a zero time value can represent "invalid".
