direct I/O fallback sync simplification
In the case of direct I/O falling back to buffered I/O we sync data twice currently: once at the end of generic_file_buffered_write using filemap_write_and_wait_range and once a little later in __generic_file_aio_write using do_sync_mapping_range with all flags set. The wait before write of the do_sync_mapping_range call does not make any sense, so just keep the filemap_write_and_wait_range call and move it to the right spot.
