Here's a better version:

fsync: giving up on dirty: 0xc4e18e38: tag devfs, type VCHR, usecount 50,
writecount 0, refcount 14,
 flags (VI_XLOCK|VV_OBJBUF), lock type devfs: EXCL (count 1) by thread
0xc20ff500
        dev ar0s1a

I was able to reproduce this on a different system without ATA RAID, so
its not likely thats the issue.
