ext4: sync the directory inode in ext4_sync_parent() ...
ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal,
when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent
directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new.
ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync
the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not
sync the directory *inode*. This patch fixes this.
Also now return error status from ext4_sync_parent().
I tested this using a power fail test, which panics a
machine running a file server getting requests from a
client. Without this patch, on about every other test run,
the server is missing many, many files that had been synced.
With this patch, on > 6 runs, I see zero files being lost.
