[PATCHv4 5/5] ext4: simplify superblock dirtying

[Artem Bityutskiy]

From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The '__ext4_handle_dirty_metadata()' takes a 'now' argument which does not add
any value anymore (after we removed 'ext4_write_super()'). First of all, it
only affects the non-journalled file-system case.
1. If 'now' is true, we just re-calculate the superblock checksum and submit
   it down for asynchronous I/O.
2. If 'now' is false, we call 'ext4_commit_super()' which essentially does the
   same, but it performs better error checking and additionally updates few
   counters like 's_kbytes_written'.

So we can simplify the code a bit by killing the 'now' argument.

This change was suggested by Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>.
