Btrfs: correctly flush compressed data before/after direct IO
For compressed writes, after doing the first filemap_fdatawrite_range() we don't get the pages tagged for writeback immediately. Instead we create a workqueue task, which is run by other kthread, and keep the pages locked. That other kthread compresses data, creates the respective ordered extent/s, tags the pages for writeback and unlocks them. Therefore we need a second call to filemap_fdatawrite_range() if we have compressed writes, as this second call will wait for the pages to become unlocked, then see they became tagged for writeback and finally wait for the writeback to finish.
