ocfs2: _really_ sync the right range
commit 64b4e252 upstream. "ocfs2 syncs the wrong range" had been broken; prior to it the code was doing the wrong thing in case of O_APPEND, all right, but _after_ it we were syncing the wrong range in 100% cases. *ppos, aka iocb->ki_pos is incremented prior to that point, so we are always doing sync on the area _after_ the one we'd written to.
