Siying Dong 3dbf4ba220 RangeSync not to sync last 1MB of the file
Summary:
From other ones' investigation:

"sync_file_range() behavior highly depends on kernel version and filesystem.

xfs does neighbor page flushing outside of the specified ranges. For example, sync_file_range(fd, 8192, 16384) does not only trigger flushing page #3 to #4, but also flushing many more dirty pages (i.e. up to page#16)... Ranges of the sync_file_range() should be far enough from write() offset (at least 1MB)."

Test Plan: make all check
