This allows us to force IO through the sync path which you normally only
get when multiple clients are reading/writing to the same file or by
mounting with -o sync. Among other things, this lets test programs verify
correctness with a single mount.

The only real downside to allowing the user to set it is that you don't
get default values by zeroing the layout struct (the default is -1).

parameters, and learning the identity and network address of the OSD a
given region of a file is stored on.
