Hisashi Hifumi e04cc15f52 ocfs2: fdatasync should skip unimportant metadata writeout
In ocfs2, fdatasync and fsync are identical.
I think fdatasync should skip committing transaction when
inode->i_state is set just I_DIRTY_SYNC and this indicates
only atime or/and mtime updates.
Following patch improves fdatasync throughput.

#sysbench --num-threads=16 --max-requests=300000 --test=fileio
--file-block-size=4K --file-total-size=16G --file-test-mode=rndwr
--file-fsync-mode=fdatasync run
