Bug description
In list view the current date is shown instead of the change date of the files. The error occurs in connection with a mounted NAS. Mount type is cifs. This means that samba is involved.
Steps to reproduce
Work in list view and see a lot of directories, Then unfold one of the directories. The change date is shown as current date.
Then double click on the directory. In the subsequent window the correct change date is displayed.
Then go back to the previous view and have the correct change date displayed.
A second way is to change from list view to icon view. Herein the correct change date is displayed too.
The way back from icon view to list view shows the correct change date again.
Expected behavior
Unfolding a directory in list view shall display the change date of the file

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Nemo 5.8.5 on Linux Mint 21.2 with a CIFS-mounted NAS, using list view and unfolding a directory. Compare the displayed change dates with the directory window and icon view; done means list view immediately shows each file's actual change date after unfolding.
