Subject: [PATCH] remove the call to ->write_super in __sync_filesystem

Now that all filesystems provide ->sync_fs methods we can change
__sync_filesystem to only call ->sync_fs.

This gives us a clear separation between periodic writeouts which
are driven by ->write_super and data integrity syncs that go
through ->sync_fs. (modulo file_fsync which is also going away)
