Add a similar test to the existing one but with a file that has a
hardlink as well. This is motivated by a bug found in btrfs where
a fsync on a file that has the old name of another file results
in the logging code to hit an infinite loop. The patch that fixes
the bug in btrfs has the following subject:

  "Btrfs: fix infinite loop during fsync after rename operations"

What's our policy on adding a new variant to an existing test?  I thought we 
preferred to create a new test for these sort of things?  If not then you can add

I have no strong opinions either way, I just know it's come up in the past.  Thanks,

Josef

Usually yes, but since over time there started to be too many fsync
related tests, we had a discussion with Dave (Chinner)
and others about considering consolidating more tests into the same
files. It's not just the number of test files, but more time to run
(even if each one adds only 1 or 2 seconds).

That's why I opted here to update generic/527 instead of adding a new test file.
Thanks.
