If the caller wanted us to persist the preallocation to disk before
returning to userspace, make sure we force the log to disk after making
all metadata updates.

That's pretty crazy. We don't need to do synchronous transactions
for every operation in fallocate(), just guarantee that the
transactions have hit stable storage before we return to userspace.
Hence we don't need to pass SYNC flags anywhere or have stuff like
xfs_update_prealloc_flags() even have to support sync transactions.
All we need is this:

	if (xfs_file_sync_writes(file))
		error = xfs_log_force_inode(ip);

And that will force out all the changes to the journal at the end
of fallocate if required.

Cheers,

Dave.
