Nikolay Borisov 1fd4033dd0 btrfs: rename BTRFS_INODE_ORDERED_DATA_CLOSE flag
Commit 8d875f95da ("btrfs: disable strict file flushes for
renames and truncates") eliminated the notion of ordered operations and
instead BTRFS_INODE_ORDERED_DATA_CLOSE only remained as a flag
indicating that a file's content should be synced to disk in case a
file is truncated and any writes happen to it concurrently. In fact
this intendend behavior was broken until it was fixed in
f6dc45c7a9 ("Btrfs: fix filemap_flush call in btrfs_file_release").

All things considered let's give the flag a more descriptive name. Also
slightly reword comments.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
