There is no dependencies for ext2fs, the FFS comments talks about SU.

Also, I am unsure what the resulting semantic of O_DIRECTIO for ext2
is ? UFS tries to eliminate any use of buffer cache for O_DIRECTIO
case, up to the mapping of user pages into pbuf to perform the
actual i/o. In ext2 case, it seems we will just destroy the buffers
after using them for i/o. Is it useful ?
