[PATCH] afs: Fix setting of mtime when creating a file/dir/symlink

kafs incorrectly passes a zero mtime (ie. 1st Jan 1970) to the server when
creating a file, dir or symlink because commit 52af7105eceb caused the
mtime recorded in the afs_operation struct to be passed to the server, but
didn't modify the afs_mkdir(), afs_create() and afs_symlink() functions to
set it first.
Those functions were written with the assumption that the mtime would be
obtained from the server - but that fell foul of malsynchronised clocks, so
it was decided that the mtime should be set from the client instead.
Fix this by filling in op->mtime before calling the create op.
Fixes: 52af7105eceb ("afs: Set mtime from the client for yfs create operations")
