fsync tester kernel 17 - 30

I have tested the kernels 17, 18, 20, 28, 29, 29 (patched with http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=20172) and 30 (f4efdd65b754ebbf41484d3a2255c59282720650), which should include the patches.

I got great results with the patched 29 kernel at the beginning and bad results, while executing the test again. This test case is not reliable, or my installation is changing parameters while switching the kernels.

I have executed the two commands concurrent (Comment #299).
dd if=/dev/zero of=./bigfile bs=1M count=5000 & ./fsync-tester
