During RocksDB testing with MySQL, we found cases
where blobfs would try to update and sync the length
xattr on the underlying blob while an existing update
was already in progress. This was primarily driven
by RocksDB performing appends and syncs on the log
file from multiple writer threads.
The simplest way to fix this is to just process one
sync_request at a time. There could be a tiny bit
of inefficiency here if multiple threads are appending
and syncing a file in parallel - we can look at some
additional optimizations if we find a case where that
is noticeable.
