Brian Behlendorf 96801d2906 Linux 2.6.37 compat, WRITE_FLUSH_FUA
The WRITE_FLUSH, WRITE_FUA, and WRITE_FLUSH_FUA flags have been
introduced as a replacement for WRITE_BARRIER.  This was done
to allow richer semantics to be expressed to the block layer.
It is the block layers responsibility to choose the correct way
to implement these semantics.

This change simply updates the bio's to use the new kernel API
which should be absolutely safe.  However, since ZFS depends
entirely on this working as designed for correctness we do
want to be careful.

Closes #281

Native ZFS for Linux! ZFS is an advanced file system and volume manager which was originally developed for Solaris. It has been successfully ported to FreeBSD and now there is a functional Linux ZFS kernel port too. The port currently includes a fully functional and stable SPA, DMU, and ZVOL with a ZFS Posix Layer (ZPL) on the way!

$ ./configure
$ make pkg

Full documentation for building, configuring, and using ZFS can be found at: http://zfsonlinux.org
