Currently file_update_time_flags unconditionally returns -EAGAIN if any
timestamp needs to be updated and IOCB_NOWAIT is passed. This makes
non-blocking direct writes impossible on file systems with granular
enough timestamps.
Add a S_NOWAIT to ask for timestamps to not block, and return -EAGAIN in
all methods for now.
