ext4: avoid issuing unnecessary barriers
(cherry picked from commit 6b17d902fdd241adfa4ce780df20547b28bf5801) We don't to issue an I/O barrier on an error or if we force commit because we are doing data journaling. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
