+Enable kernel support for soft-dependencies in FFS filesystems.
+Softdep improves write performance by aggregating and properly
+ordering disk metadata writes, achieving near-asynchronous write
+performance while maintaining the filesystem consistency of

+Soft-dependencies are enabled on a per-mount basis.
