So this technically is still different from upstream in that if the
caller clears XLOG_UNMOUNT_TRANS, upstream wouldn't account this
reservation from the log ticket because both t_flags and flags are
zeroed. With this change, we always account the op header one way or the
other. I don't see anything else that changes functionally in the
xlog_write() code based on flags (i.e. other than what we write out to
disk), so perhaps this logic is correct.

Could you (or Darrick?) update the commit log to note that tweak? With
that, the rest looks good to me:
