If open a file with O_SYNC, and call fallocate with mode=0.when using
fast commit, will cause the process to hang.

During the fast_commit procedure, it will wait for inode update done.
call ext4_fc_stop_update() before ext4_fc_commit() to mark inode
complete update.

Thanks for the patch Xin, it looks good to me. I think there are a few
other places where we are not stopping the transaction before calling
commit. I'm trying to find them out.

Once the patch series "ext4 fast commit API cleanup" gets merged in
(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-ext4/list/?series=277672),
this patch won't be required anymore. So, I'll undo my review in favor
of merging the API cleanup patch series first.

After applying Harshad's patch series "ext4 fast commit API cleanup" ,
this issue has been fixed.
So , please ignore this patch.
