Fabiano Rosas 61dec06082 migration/multifd: Don't fsync when closing QIOChannelFile
Commit bc38feddeb ("io: fsync before closing a file channel") added a
fsync/fdatasync at the closing point of the QIOChannelFile to ensure
integrity of the migration stream in case of QEMU crash.

The decision to do the sync at qio_channel_close() was not the best
since that function runs in the main thread and the fsync can cause
QEMU to hang for several minutes, depending on the migration size and
disk speed.

To fix the hang, remove the fsync from qio_channel_file_close().

At this moment, the migration code is the only user of the fsync and
we're taking the tradeoff of not having a sync at all, leaving the
responsibility to the upper layers.

Fixes: bc38feddeb ("io: fsync before closing a file channel")
