As described in my PR kern/3721, accounting file can't be on nfs,
since kernel checks disk capacity during interrupt time.

Why this check is done in kernel rather than userland?  (to get higher
priority than any userland process?)  And what is ``the own problem''
mentioned in the comment of kern_acct.c when recording accounting
information like klog?
