Some file systems seem to allocate (via hashinit) one hash bucket
for every desired vnode, (isn't that wasteful?), others some fraction
of that.  Some file systems, like fdesc, allocate a fixed number
(in TCFS, merely 16!), which seems undesirable.  What should TCFS
allocate?  Consensus would seem to suggest desiredvnodes.
