Currently JBD2 relies blkdev_issue_flush() draining the queue when ASYNC_COMMIT
feature is set. This property is going away so make JBD2 wait for buffers it
needs on its own before submitting the cache flush.

This patch is necessary before enabling flush/fua support in jbd2.
The flush-fua git tree has been udpated to included this between patch
24 and 25.

Thanks.
