[PATCH] Mark CONFIG_UFS_FS_WRITE as BROKEN



OpenBSD doesn't see "." correctly in directories created by Linux.  Copying
files over several KB will buy you infinite loop in __getblk_slow().
Copying files smaller than 1 KB seems to be OK.  Sometimes files will be
filled with zeros.  Sometimes incorrectly copied file will reappear after
next file with truncated size.
