nilfs2: enable sync_page method

This adds a missing sync_page method which unplugs bio requests when
waiting for page locks. This will improve read performance of nilfs.

Here is a measurement result using dd command.

Without this patch:

 # mount -t nilfs2 /dev/sde1 /test
 # dd if=/test/aaa of=/dev/null bs=512k
