Guys,

why did b5dee3130bb4014 add a magic export for sync functionality
that wrapps VFS code in a weird way, and then exports it (without
even adding a user in that commit)?   This kind of functionality
needs to be exported from the VFS, and only with ACKs?  With this
and commit d5ea093eebf022e now we end up with a random driver (amdgpu)
syncing all file systems for absolutely no good reason.
