I don't see anything wrong with setting the iversion bit, however I also
don't see where this would be useful. Agreed with the consistency,
otherwise the time is updated when device super block is wiped or a
device initialized, both are big events so missing that due to lack of
iversion update seems unlikely. I'll add it to the queue, thanks.
