Is there anything we need to do in userspace to improve the behavior
of fflush and similar interfaces?

This is not strictly a btrfs issue: Some of us are worried about
scenarios where the write system call succeeds and the data never
makes it to storage *without a catastrophic failure*.  (I do not
consider running out of disk space a catastrophic failure.)  NFS
apparently has this property, and you have to call fsync or close the
descriptor to detect this.  fsync is not desirable due to its
performance impact.
