If the first operation in a string of defer ops has no intents,
then there is no reason to commit it before running the first call
to xfs_defer_finish_one(). This allows the defer ops to be used
effectively for non-intent based operations without requiring an
unnecessary extra transaction commit when first called.

This fixes a regression in per-attribute modification transaction
count when delayed attributes are not being used.

Hm.  I think the comment needs a slight tweak: "...before we try to
finish the next deferred work item by committing..."

With that fixed,
