Bug #3249: HAMMER2 fsync(2) not working properly

----------------------------------------
VOP_FSYNC in HAMMER2 doesn't flush chains all the way up to the root, because 
inodes are initially detached from its parent and they are still detached when 
fsync happens.

This is also mentioned in the below comment in hammer2_vnops.c.
"This function does not flush the root topology down to the inode."

But if that's part of the design, what's the point of fsync in HAMMER2 ?

e.g. In HAMMER2, a regular file is gone after creat() -> write() -> fsync() -> 
force-reboot.
To be exact, after force-reboot, nothing (no inode, dirent, data) from 
creat/write/fsync was allocated in freemap.
