[PATCH] scripts/setlocalversion: fix false positive -dirty tag from ctime

[Gregory Fong]

git-diff-index cannot detect that a file hasn't actually changed when the
file's ctime has changed (e.g. if chmod was used but didn't actually result in
any changes), which was causing setlocalversion to incorrectly add a -dirty
tag.  Run git-update-index beforehand to make sure that the index is correct.

Quick test:
  make defconfig
  make prepare
  chmod u+w Kbuild  # any chmod that doesn't result in a change will do
  CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO=y /bin/sh scripts/setlocalversion $PWD | grep -q dirty && echo "FAIL" || echo "OK"
