bcachefs: Fix deadlock in journal write path
bch2_journal_write() was incorrectly waiting on earlier journal writes synchronously; this usually worked because most of the time we'd be running in the context of a thread that did a journal_buf_put(), but sometimes we'd be running out of the same workqueue that completes those prior journal writes. Additionally, this makes sure to punt to a workqueue before submitting preflushes - we really don't want to be calling submit_bio() in the main transaction commit path.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
