Darrick J. Wong 2931cdcb49 ocfs2: improve fsync efficiency and fix deadlock between aio_write and sync_file
Currently, ocfs2_sync_file grabs i_mutex and forces the current journal
transaction to complete.  This isn't terribly efficient, since sync_file
really only needs to wait for the last transaction involving that inode
to complete, and this doesn't require i_mutex.

Therefore, implement the necessary bits to track the newest tid
associated with an inode, and teach sync_file to wait for that instead
of waiting for everything in the journal to commit.  Furthermore, only
issue the flush request to the drive if jbd2 hasn't already done so.

This also eliminates the deadlock between ocfs2_file_aio_write() and
ocfs2_sync_file().  aio_write takes i_mutex then calls
ocfs2_aiodio_wait() to wait for unaligned dio writes to finish.
However, if that dio completion involves calling fsync, then we can get
into trouble when some ocfs2_sync_file tries to take i_mutex.
