Add fsync support

[adamrk]

Hey, I took a stab at adding fsync to the file operations. I'm not really sure what the return value is supposed to be used for, so maybe it should just be ()?

Hey Adam, thanks for contributing!

We're slowly migrating ourselves to a plan for contributing this code to the upstream kernel. Would you be interested in migrating your patch to be against https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/ ?

[adamrk]

Yeah, no problem - by the way, is there a chat or something for the Rust-for-Linux group? I've got some questions that don't really make sense to submit as issues.

For example, I'm not sure how to use the library as it is in https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/ for making a module that's not built-in.

Feel free to just file issues for the time being -- we're working on setting up a mailing list.
