I don't think this is a good plan for cluster filesystems, since if the
times on the nodes are not exactly synchronised (we do highly recommend
people run ntp or similar) then this might lead to excessive atime
updating. The current behaviour is to ignore atimes which are in the
future for exactly this reason,
