Mark Johnston b6fbf003e1 Provide a sysctl to force synchronous initialization of inode blocks.
FFS performs asynchronous inode initialization, using a barrier write
to ensure that the inode block is written before the corresponding
cylinder group header update. Some GEOMs do not appear to handle
BIO_ORDERED correctly, meaning that the barrier write may not work as
intended. The sysctl allows one to work around this problem at the
cost of expensive file creation on new filesystems. The default
behaviour is unchanged.
