Subject: fsync /media/.hal-mtab after changes

Some file systems (reported on ubifs) are rather lazy with writing changes to
disk. An automount, followed by a power failure, then results in a stale
/media/.hal-mtab and also a stale mount point directory.

Use fsync() to make hal-mtab changes much more reliable.

Thanks to Fujii Takafumi for debugging this!
