I'm not sure who decided the ordering requirements for O_DIRECT, but in
order to fix the generic/465 case, I'd either have to order all reads
with all outstanding writes or implement some kind of range locking to
do it in a more fine-grained way.

We do order buffered I/O and O_DIRECT, so that backup programs can do
their thing on databases that use O_DIRECT. However we do assume that
anyone using O_DIRECT for I/O is doing their own synchronisation.
