btrfs: do commit in sync_fs if there are pending changes
If a pending change is requested, it's not processed unless there is a transaction commit about to happen, not even after sync or SYNC_FS ioctl. For example a remount that toggles the inode_cache option will not take effect after sync on a quiescent filesystem. Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.cz>
