nvme-tcp: set the STABLE_WRITES flag when data digests are enabled
There was a few false alarms sighted on target side about wrong data digest while performing high throughput load to XFS filesystem shared through NVMoF TCP. This flag tells the rest of the kernel to ensure that the data buffer does not change while the write is in flight. It incurs a performance penalty, so only enable it when it is actually needed, i.e. when we are calculating data digests. Although even with this change in place, ext2 users can steel experience false positives, as ext2 is not respecting this flag. This may be apply to vfat as well.
