log_start_commit() returns 1 only when it started a transaction
commit. Thus in case transaction commit is already running, we
fail to wait for the commit to finish. Fix the issue by always
waiting for the commit regardless of the log_start_commit return
value.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

We cannot rely on buffer dirty bits during fsync because pdflush can come
before fsync is called and clear dirty bits without forcing a transaction
commit. What we do is that we track which transaction has last changed
the inode and which transaction last changed allocation and force it to
disk on fsync.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

In case we fsync() a file and inode is not dirty, we don't force a transaction
to disk and hence don't flush disk caches. Thus file data could be just in disk
caches and not on persistent storage. Fix the problem by flushing disk caches
if we didn't force a transaction commit.Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Currently fdatasync is identical to fsync in ext3.
I think fdatasync should skip journal flush in data=ordered and
data=writeback mode when it overwrites to already-instantiated blocks on
HDD. When I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag is not set, fdatasync should skip journal
writeout because this indicates only atime or/and mtime updates.Following patch is the same approach of ext2's fsync code(ext2_sync_file).
I did a performance test using the sysbench.
#sysbench --num-threads=128 --max-requests=50000 --test=fileio --file-total-size=128G
--file-test-mode=rndwr --file-fsync-mode=fdatasync runThe result on ext3 was:

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
