[Qemu-devel] [STABLE][PATCH 08/14] block: Add bdrv_(p)write_sync

[Kevin Wolf]

Add new functions that write and flush the written data to disk immediately.
This is what needs to be used for image format metadata to maintain integrity
for cache=... modes that don't use O_DSYNC. (Actually, we only need barriers,
and therefore the functions are defined as such, but flushes is what is
implemented in this patch - we can try to change that later)
