xfs: handle CIl transaction commit failures correctly

Failure to commit a transaction into the CIL is not handled
correctly. This currently can only happen when racing with a
shutdown and requires an explicit shutdown check, so it rare and can
be avoided. Remove the shutdown check and make the CIL commit a void
function to indicate it will always succeed, thereby removing the
incorrectly handled failure case.
