Thanks.

durable_unlink() issues fsync on the parent directory, if used, those
fsync() calls will be per partial.tmp file. Moreover, durable_unlink()
is backend-only, not available for tools i.e. FRONTEND code. If we
don't durably remove the pratial.tmp file, it will get deleted in the
next cycle anyways, so no problem there.

Yeah, that way it is much simpler.

Please review the attached v6 patch.
