  NFSv4 mandates a change attribute to avoid problems with timestamp
granularity, which Linux implements using the i_version counter. This is
particularly important when the underlying filesystem is fast.

For the case f2fs is not used by nfs as backend storage, there will be overhead for
iversion update logic.

So what about introducing a new mount option to enable the iversion functionality,
and disabling it by default?

Thanks,
