The flat-namespace filestore vop's were just taken out.  They didn't
really fit earlier since they didn't have vnodes associated with them.
They were hand coded and bypass mechanisms were special cased to ignore
them.

This policy has changed recently so there's no reason not to bring them
back, but a little work will need to be done to update them to include a
vnode arg.
