The latter.  I just now tried to find that stuff again, and couldn't,
so let's just ignore it for now.  If the problem turns up again
we can fix it later.

The whole fsync/fdatasync/O_SYNC/O_DSYNC/F_FULLSYNC/O_DIRECT/etc. business is
such a poorly-understood zoo that I'm not sure how much it matters ...
