    fsync - Add sysctl to relax fsync requirements.
    
    * sysctl vfs.hammer.fsync_mode (defaults to 0 == full fsync semantics).
    
    	0 -	full fsync semantics
    	1 -	asynchronous
    	2 -	synchronous fsync on close if fsync called prior to close
    	3 -	asynchronous fsync on close if fsync called prior to close
    	4 -	ignore fsync (30-second system sync takes care of it)
    
    * This is likely a temporary measure until HAMMER gets a REDO log.
      It is mainly to facilitate testing and to reduce the pounding
      disks take from pkgsrc bulk builds (pkg_add seems to insist on
      calling fsync() a lot for no reason).
