It's bad in the case of concurrent writes, because of
second FlushBufferPool "flushes whatever else has changed during
this brief period of time".
Right way is just set some flag in WriteBuffer()/WriteNoReleaseBuffer()
and don't do
FlushBufferPool
TransactionIdCommit
FlushBufferPool
at all when this flag is not setted.
I'll do it for 6.5.1 if no one else...
