I won't put XXX (or KEBE for that matter... ;) back, but I've occasionally
found TODO useful. I'll change this one, however and delete the other one

The zvol.c DKIOCFREE handler has these comments already. The COMSTAR caller
just wants DF_WAIT_SYNC to reflect the LU's disabled write cache.
I've updated the webrev and will be (re)spinning a nightly.
