Within ufs, the ffs_sync and ffs_fsync functions did not always
check for and/or report I/O errors. The result is that a VFS_SYNC
or VOP_FSYNC called with MNT_WAIT could loop infinitely on ufs in
the presence of a hard error writing a disk sector or in a filesystem
full condition. This patch ensures that I/O errors will always be
checked and returned.  This patch also ensures that every call to
VFS_SYNC or VOP_FSYNC with MNT_WAIT set checks for and takes
appropriate action when an error is returned.
