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.

v2: Update tid when updating mtime.
