ext3: Fix waiting on transaction during fsync

log_start_commit() returns 1 only when it started a transaction
commit. Thus in case transaction commit is already running, we
fail to wait for the commit to finish. Fix the issue by always
waiting for the commit regardless of the log_start_commit return
value.
