DRBD seems to enforce strict write ordering on both sides of the link
according to the docs. I didn't look at the code, but my plug-pulling tests
on a busy PostgreSQL server didn't cause any problems. No conclusive
evidence, but useful at lease in my use-case. (And yes: I make ps_dumps
often just in case)
