Subject: [RFCv2 4/8] ext2: Use __generic_file_fsync_nolock implementation

Next patch converts ext2 to use iomap interface for DIO.
iomap layer can call generic_write_sync() -> ext2_fsync() from
iomap_dio_complete while still holding the inode_lock().

Now writeback from other paths doesn't need inode_lock().
It seems there is also no need of an inode_lock for
sync_mapping_buffers(). It uses it's own mapping->private_lock
for it's buffer list handling.
Hence this patch is in preparation to move ext2 to iomap.
This uses __generic_file_fsync_nolock() variant in ext2_fsync().
