file-posix: Make bdrv_flush() failure permanent without O_DIRECT

Success for bdrv_flush() means that all previously written data is safe
on disk. For fdatasync(), the best semantics we can hope for on Linux
(without O_DIRECT) is that all data that was written since the last call
was successfully written back. Therefore, and because we can't redo all
writes after a flush failure, we have to give up after a single
fdatasync() failure. After this failure, we would never be able to make
the promise that a successful bdrv_flush() makes.
