flush: seems to flush the file out of the disk cache
flushvol: doesn't appear to do anything.

Bug:
The flags are not being set properly on the disk cache entries to
indicate they are in use, so that flushvol will detect them.  "flush"
uses other hash tables for lookup, whereas "flushvol" uses the general
table.

Fix:
Still investigating...

Documentation:
Claims that both should flush disk cache entries.
