gfs2: Support negative atimes
When inodes are read from disk, GFS2 will only update in-memory atimes older than the on-disk atimes; this prevents atimes from going backwards. The atimes of newly allocated inodes are initialized to 0. This means that when an atime is explicitly set to a negative value, this value will not persist. Fix by setting the atime of newly allocated inodes to the lowest possible value instead of 0. Fixes xfstest generic/258.
