f2fs: do not skip writing data pages

For data pages, let's try to flush as much as possible in background.

On /dev/pmem0,

1. dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/testfile bs=1M count=2048 conv=fsync
 Before : 800 MB/s
 After  : 1.1 GB/s

2. dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/testfile bs=1M count=2048
 Before : 1.3 GB/s
 After  : 2.2 GB/s
