syncs the entire underlying file rather then just the requested range, resulting in huge inefficiencies when the VM system is articulated in a certain way. The VOP_FSYNC was also found to massively reduce NFS performance in certain cases. Change MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE to call vm_page_dontneed() instead of vm_page_deactivate(). Using vm_page_deactivate() causes all inactive and cache pages to be recycled before the dontneed/free page is recycled, effectively flushing our entire VM inactive & cache queues continuously even if only a few pages are being actively MADV free'd and reused (such as occurs with a sequential scan of a memory-mapped file).
