  Log:
  The recomputation of file system summary at mount time can be a
  very slow process, especially for large file systems that is just
  recovered from a crash.
  
  Since the summary is already re-sync'ed every 30 second, we will
  not lag behind too much after a crash.  With this consideration
  in mind, it is more reasonable to transfer the responsibility to
  background fsck, to reduce the delay after a crash.
  
  Add a new sysctl variable, vfs.ffs.compute_summary_at_mount, to
  control this behavior.  When set to nonzero, we will get the
  "old" behavior, that the summary is computed immediately at mount
  time.
  
  Add five new sysctl variables to adjust ndir, nbfree, nifree,
  nffree and numclusters respectively.  Teach fsck_ffs about these
  API, however, intentionally not to check the existence, since
  kernels without these sysctls must have recomputed the summary
  and hence no adjustments are necessary.
  
  This change has eliminated the usual tens of minutes of delay of
  mounting large dirty volumes.
