+ * We ignore the datasync flag here because a datasync is effectively
+ * identical to an fsync. That is, datasync implies that we need to write
+ * only the metadata needed to be able to access the data that is written
+ * if we crash after the call completes. Hence if we are writing beyond
+ * EOF we have to log the inode size change as well, which makes it a
+ * full fsync. If we don't write beyond EOF, the inode core will be
+ * clean in memory and so we don't need to log the inode, just like
+ * fsync.
