Current implementations of sync(2) and syncer vnode fsync() VOP uses
mnt_noasync counter to temporary remove MNTK_ASYNC mount option, which is needed to guarantee a synchronous completion of the initiated i/o before syscall or VOP return. Global removal of MNTK_ASYNC option is harmful because not only i/o started from corresponding thread becomes synchronous, but all i/o is synchronous on the filesystem which is initiated during sync(2) or syncer activity. Instead of removing MNTK_ASYNC from mnt_kern_flag, provide a local thread flag to disable async i/o for current thread only. Use the opportunity to move DOINGASYNC() macro into sys/vnode.h and consistently use it through places which tested for MNTK_ASYNC. Some testing demonstrated 60-70% improvements in run time for the metadata-intensive operations on async-mounted UFS volumes, but still with great deviation due to other reasons.
