sync_inode() has some holes that can cause problems if we're under heavy ENOSPC pressure. If there's writeback running on a separate thread sync_inode() will skip writing the inode altogether. What we really want is to make sure writeback has been started on all the pages to make sure we can see the ordered extents and wait on them if appropriate. Switch to this new helper which will allow us to accomplish this and avoid ENOSPC'ing early.
