Christoph Hellwig 1b061d9247 rename the generic fsync implementations
We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.

This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect.  In addition add some documentation for both methods.

* NOTE! This filesystem is probably most useful
* not as a real filesystem, but as an example of
* how virtual filesystems can be written.
*
* It doesn't get much simpler than this. Consider
* that this file implements the full semantics of
* a POSIX-compliant read-write filesystem.
*
* Note in particular how the filesystem does not
* need to implement any data structures of its own
* to keep track of the virtual data: using the VFS
* caches is sufficient.
