Hi everyone,

We need to get syncfs() into uClibc because its needed for busybox [1]
and (I believe) systemd.  I've seen patches for this go to openembedded
and uclibc-ng, but I'm not sure if any patch has come to uClibc itself.
 There's a set of three patches in uclibc-ng (the original port of
syncfs() by Bartosz Golaszewski) and a follow up by Thomas Petazzoni and
myself.

To be honest, I'm lost in uClibc patch queue.  Should I (re?)submit
Bartosz + Thomas + my patches here?  I'd like to see them get into git
master and the 0.9.33 branch.
