Remove useless and potentially dangerous rw() function which tries to
update access and modification times by reading and writing the file.
chmod(2) in rw() doesn't help because utimes(2) allow owner and the
super-user to change times. Using just utimes(2) should be sufficient.
The -f option becomes no-op.
