Subject: [PATCH 15/16] fat: Opencode sync_page_range_nolock()

fat_cont_expand() is the only user of sync_page_range_nolock(). It's also the
only user of generic_osync_inode() which does not have a file open.  So
opencode needed actions for FAT so that we can convert generic_osync_inode() to
a standard syncing path.

Update a comment about generic_osync_inode().
