Subject: [PATCH] utimens: fix confusing arg type in internal func
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Although the old code was technically correct, this was accidental
and it understandably confused Coverity. Reported by Ondrej Dubaj in:
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2021-04/msg00000.html
* lib/utimens.c (update_timespec): Change arg type from struct
timespec *[2] (pointer to array of 2 pointers to timespecs) to
struct timespec ** (pointer to pointer to the first timespec in
an array of 2 timespecs). Although the old code happened to be
technically correct, it was misleading and confused Coverity.
And though the type struct timespec (**)[2] (pointer to pointer
to array of 2 timespecs) would perhaps be more technically
correct, it would be almost as confusing and would require changes
elsewhere in this file; lets quit while were ahead.
