--- Comment #2 from Maik Zumstrull <maik@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
Last paragraph under NOTES. "Pages that have not yet been written out will be
unaffected, so if the application wishes to guarantee that pages will be
released, it should call fsync(2) or fdatasync(2) first."

Unless I'm misreading the code, this is not true.
