I think this is incorrect. datasync = 1 means to only write out
metadata that is required to access the file data. The write_inode code
makes sure all metadata goes out, which AFAIK is what the NFS protocol
requires from us anyway for all these metadata operations.
Note that this does not invalidate your XFS numbers as right now XFS
doesn't actually implement the datasync == 1 optimization, although I'm
about to send a patch to do that. The updsize is that this will
make your patchset quite a bit simpler :)
