[XFS] Kill SYNC_CLOSE

Browse Source 
SYNC_CLOSE is only ever used and checked in conjunction with SYNC_WAIT,
and this only done in one spot. The only thing this does is make
XFS_bflush() calls to the data buftargs.

This will happen very shortly afterwards the xfs_sync() call anyway in the
unmount path via the xfs_close_devices(), so this code is redundant and
can be removed. That only user of SYNC_CLOSE is now gone, so kill the flag
completely.
