To give context for those who don't know: relatime is a relatively (I'm a dinosaur) newer introduction into the Linux kernel; mounting partitions noatime used to be the only alternative to the default which was updating the atime on every access, thus fiddling with that setting used to be important. Not any more.

BTW I used to continue to mount everything noatime anyway, since having the atime field be set upon file creation and not anymore afterwards was a way to get file creation time, and I found that more useful than the access time. This isn't necessary either anymore since the introduction of an actual file creation time.
