The man page for fsync() suggests that it is necessary to call it on the
directory fd.
However, in the case of tmpfs, fsync() on the file completes, but on the
directory it returns -1 with errno==EINVAL.
Is there any particular reason for this? Would a patch that makes it
just return successfully without doing anything be accepted?
