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.
