This also causes *tremendous* slowdowns on heavily disk-loaded machines. I measured \
with latencytop fsync() times of >9 seconds on a machine otherwise only used for a \
few kgets, a `find / >/dev/null' process and kernel compilation.

If the fsync() call really is totally unnecessary, fixing this should also boost \
performance under heavy disk loads.
