Zach Brown b6c592f099 scoutfs: don't dirty btree buffers ...

The btree sets some buffer head flags before it writes them to satisfy
submit_bh() requirements.  It was setting dirty which wasn't required.
Nothing every cleared dirty so those buffers sat around and were never
freed.  Each btree block we wrote sat around forever.  Eventually the vm
gets clogged up and the world backs up trying to allocate pages to
write and we see massive stalls.

With this fix we no longer see the 'buffers' vm stat continously grow
and IO rates are consistent over time.
