At least since commit 6a7be48b
InnoDB appears to be invoking buf_flush_note_modification() on pages
that were exclusively latched but not modified in a mini-transaction.

MTR_MEMO_MODIFY, mtr_t::modify(): Define not only in debug code,
but also in release code. We will set the MTR_MEMO_MODIFY flag
on the earliest mtr_t::m_memo entry that we find.

MTR_LOG_NONE: Only use this mode in cases where the previous
mode will be restored before anything is modified in the mini-transaction.

MTR_MEMO_PAGE_X_MODIFY, MTR_MEMO_PAGE_SX_MODIFY: The allowed flag
combinations that include MTR_MEMO_MODIFY.

ReleaseBlocks: Only invoke buf_flush_note_modification()
on those buffer pool blocks on which mtr_t::set_modified()
and mtr_t::modify() were invoked.
