NFS: Fix attribute updates
This fixes a regression seen when running the Connectathon testsuite against an ext3 filesystem. The reason was that the inode was constantly being marked as 'just updated' by the jiffy wraparound test. This again meant that newer GETATTR calls were failing to pass the nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() test unless the changes caused a ctime update on the server, since they were perceived as having been started before the latest inode update. Given that nfs_inode_attrs_need_update() already checks for wraparound of nfsi->last_updated, we can drop the buggy "protection" in nfs_update_inode(). Also make a slight micro-optimisation of nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(): we are more often going to see time_after(fattr->time_start, nfsi->last_updated) be true, rather than seeing an update of ctime/size, so put that test first to ensure that we optimise away the ctime/size tests.
