You might try this approach instead, which just removes the thing that
might deadlock and always is unfair..

(Ugh, I hate attachements, but the system I'm sending this from has this
broken version of 'pine' that will mess up white-space).

For nicer interactive behaviour while flushing things out, the
inode_fsync() thing should really use "write_locked_buffers()". That's a
separate patch, though.
