This patch implements O_DIRECT about 80% of the way. It takes a patchset
Tor created a while ago, removes the raw I/O piece (that has cache coherency
problems), and adds a buffer cache / VM freeing piece.
Essentially this patch causes O_DIRECT I/O to not be left in the cache, but
does not prevent it from going through the cache, hence the 80%. For
the last 20% we need a method by which the I/O can be issued directly to
buffer supplied by the user process and bypass the buffer cache entirely,
but still maintain cache coherency.
I also have the code working under -stable but the changes made to sys/file.h
may not be MFCable, so an MFC is not on the table yet.
