Btrfs: optimize fsync for the single writer case

This patch optimizes the tree logging stuff so it doesn't always wait 1 jiffie
for new people to join the logging transaction if there is only ever 1 writer.
This helps a little bit with latency where we have something like RPM where it
will fdatasync every file it writes, and so waiting the 1 jiffie for every
fdatasync really starts to add up.
