Subject: [PATCH] basic/stat-util: make mtime check stricter and use entire
timestamp
Note that st_mtime member of struct stat is defined as follows,
#define st_mtime st_mtim.tv_sec
Hence we omitted checking nanosecond part of the timestamp (struct
timespec) and possibly would miss modifications that happened within the
same second.
(cherry picked from commit a59b0a9f768f6e27b25f4f1bab6de08842e78d74)
