skip writing data pages when inode is under I_SYNC


Since I_SYNC was split out from I_LOCK, the concern in commit
4b89eed9 ("Write back inode data pages
even when the inode itself is locked") is not longer valid.

We should revert to the original behavior: in __writeback_single_inode(),
when we find an I_SYNC-ed inode and we're not doing a data-integrity sync,
skip writing entirely.  Otherwise, we are double calling do_writepages()
