Re: ReiserFS patch for updating ctimes of renamed files

I looked again at the definition of the difference between ctime and mtime on the stat man page, and I think that updating ctime in response to rename is as reasonable as updating it in response to changing the number of links.

Ok, we will conform, and I will accept the kindly donated patch, along with Andrew's optimization of our evaluation of CURRENT_TIME. vs, please add Andrew's suggested optimization and sent the result through QA. Thanks to all for your good advice.
