ceph: request expedited service on session's last cap flush
When flushing a lot of caps to the MDS's at once (e.g. for syncfs), we can end up waiting a substantial amount of time for MDS replies, due to the fact that it may delay some of them so that it can batch them up together in a single journal transaction. This can lead to stalls when calling sync or syncfs. What we'd really like to do is request expedited service on the _last_ cap we're flushing back to the server. If the CHECK_CAPS_FLUSH flag is set on the request and the current inode was the last one on the session->s_cap_dirty list, then mark the request with CEPH_CLIENT_CAPS_SYNC. Note that this heuristic is not perfect. New inodes can race onto the list after we've started flushing, but it does seem to fix some common use cases.
