Both of the following patches are pretty small. The patch to clear
the dirty bit at the end of the glock flush is the more important
one for now,
Steve.

The dirty bit can get set during the inode glock sync. Its too
complicated to change that at the moment, so this is the quick
fix - to clear the bit again at the end of the function.
