Subject: [PATCH 2/3] jbd2: Provide function to check whether transaction will issue data flush

Provide a function which returns whether a transaction with given tid
will send a flush to the filesystem device. The function will be used
by ext4 to detect whether fsync needs to send a separate flush or not.
