drbd: we should write meta data updates with FLUSH FUA

We used to write these with BIO_RW_BARRIER aka REQ_HARDBARRIER (unless
disabled in the configuration). The correct semantic now would be to
write with FLUSH/FUA.
For example, with activity log transactions, FUA alone is not enough, we
need the corresponding bitmap update (and all related application
updates) on stable storage as well.
