We only really need to update i_version if someone has queried for it
since we last incremented it. By doing that, we can avoid having to
update the inode if the times haven't changed.

If the times have changed, then we go ahead and forcibly increment the
counter, under the assumption that we'll be going to the storage
anyway, and the increment itself is relatively cheap.

David Howells pointed out that the logic for setting dirty in here will
break SB_LAZYTIME handling. The patch is now fixed in my tree.
