This helper returns true for the IS_SYNC or O_SYNC conditions which
are already handled in generic code using generic_write_sync, leading
to a double data writeout in both the write and splice_write path.  Even
worse nfs is using vfs_fsync instead of the range variant used by the
generic code, making O_SYNC writes on NFS much heavier than they need to
be.
