btrfs: wake up transaction thread from SYNC_FS ioctl
commit 2fad4e83e12591eb3bd213875b9edc2d18e93383 upstream.
The transaction thread may want to do more work, namely it pokes the
cleaner ktread that will start processing uncleaned subvols.
This can be triggered by user via the 'btrfs fi sync' command, otherwise
there was a delay up to 30 seconds before the cleaner started to clean
old snapshots.
