GFS2: Clean up fsync()
This patch is designed to clean up GFS2's fsync implementation and ensure that it really does get everything on disk. Since ->write_inode() has been updated, we can call that via the vfs library function sync_inode_metadata() and the only remaining thing that has to be done is to ensure that we get any revoke records in the log after the inode has been written back.
