I recently noticed a bug in ext2/3; newly created inodes which inherit
the noatime flag from their containing directory do not respect noatime
until the inode is flushed from the inode cache and then re-read later.
This is because the code which checks the ext2 no-atime attribute and
then sets the S_NOATIME in inode->i_flags is present in
ext2_read_inode(), but not in ext2_new_inode().
This patch centralizes the code which translates the ext2 flags in the
raw ext2 inode to the appropriate flag values in inode->i_flags in a
single location. This fixes the bug, and also removes 30 lines of code
and 128 bytes of compiled x86 text in the bargain.

# This fixes a bug where the noatime flag not being honored in inodes
# which inherited noatime from their directory flag (at least not until
# inode was flushed out of the inode cache and then re-read into the inode
# cache later on), and also saves code because the common code has all been
