jbd2: add todo for a fast commit performance optimization

Browse Source 
Fast commit performance can be optimized if commit thread doesn't wait
for ongoing fast commits to complete until the transaction enters
T_FLUSH state. Document this optimization.

* TODO: by blocking fast commits here, we are increasing
* fsync() latency slightly. Strictly speaking, we don't need
* to block fast commits until the transaction enters T_FLUSH
* state. So an optimization is possible where we block new fast
* commits here and wait for existing ones to complete
* just before we enter T_FLUSH. That way, the existing fast
* commits and this full commit can proceed parallely.
