GFS2: Make atime checks more efficient
We do not need to start a transaction unless the atime check has proved positive. Also if we are going to flush the complete ail list anyway, we might as well skip the writeback for this specific inode's metadata, since that will be done as part of the ail writeback process in an order offering potentially more efficient I/O.
