Syscall truncate() never updates m/ctime in jffs2 even if the file
size is changed. This is incorrect according to man file:

  truncate (2):
  If  the  size  changed, then the st_ctime and st_mtime fields
  (respectively, time of last status change and time of last
  modification; see stat(2)) for the file are updated, and the
  set-user-ID and set-group-ID mode bits may be cleared.

This is because truncate() will not set ATTR_CTIME and ATTR_MTIME even
when file size is changed. Fix this special case just like what other
filesystems do.

Test Steps:
  1. cd /path/to/mnt/point
  2. dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=1M count=1
  3. stat test
  4. /bin/my_truncate -s 1024 test
  5. stat test
  6. compare m/ctime of step 5 with step 3

Program source:
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <string.h>
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <sys/types.h>
  int main(int argc, char **argv)
  {
  	int ret;
	char file_name[128] = {0};

	if (argc < 4 || argv == NULL || argv[1] == NULL ||
argv[2] == NULL || argv[3] == NULL) {
		return -1;
	}

	if (strcmp(argv[1], "-s")) {
		return -1;
	}

	if (realpath(argv[3], file_name) == NULL) {
		printf("truncate: input file name %s err.\n", argv[3]);
			return -1;
		}

		off_t size = (off_t)strtol(argv[2], 0, 0);
		ret = truncate(file_name, size);
		if (ret) {
			printf("truncate return err %d\n", ret);
		}
		return ret;
	}

  I considered fixing this problem in vfs_truncate(), but it is
  suggested to implement the proper semantics in jffs's ->setattr.
