It does no such thing. To do that, a new kernel api is needed to
allow the application to specify where transactions start/stop. Data
journaling only makes sense for an external journal on an ssd or
similar: then fsync() and friends can return as soon as the data hits
the ssd and rely on it being safely migrated to the hdd in the future.
