exofs: Avoid using file_fsync()
The use of file_fsync() in exofs_file_sync() is not necessary since it
does some extra stuff not used by exofs. Open code just the parts that
are currently needed.
TODO: Farther optimization can be done to sync the sb only on inode
update of new files, Usually the sb update is not needed in exofs.
