Summary: OpenSSI fails the glibc tst-atime test

Initial Comment:
CFS doesn't keep the atime (last accessed time) field up to date.

This is a known limitation, I'm just reporting it here so it doesn't get forgotten about.

Maybe as a workaround we could pretend that cfs filesystems were mounted with the noatime option?

To reproduce:

$ cc tst-atime.c
$ ./a.out 
atime has not changed
