ext4: use ext4_write_inode() when fsyncing w/o a journal
In no-journal mode, we previously used __generic_file_fsync() in no-journal mode. This triggers a lockdep warning, and in addition, it's not safe to depend on the inode writeback mechanism in the case ext4. We can solve both problems by calling ext4_write_inode() directly.
