[PATCH] generic: add test for fsync of directory after creating hard link

[fdmanana@kernel.org]

From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@suse.com>

Test that if we create a new hard link for a file which was previously
fsync'ed, fsync a parent directory of the new hard link and power fail,
the parent directory exists after mounting the filesystem again. The
parent directory must be a new directory, not yet persisted.

This test is motivated by a bug found in btrfs, where the fsync'ed parent
directory was lost after a power failure. The bug in btrfs is fixed by a
patch for the linux kernel titled:

 "Btrfs: sync log after logging new name"
