You just stated the the Linux defaults.  Do note that XFS write barriers
will ensure journal and thus filesystem integrity in a crash/power fail
event.  They do NOT guarantee file data integrity as file data isn't
journaled.  No filesystem (Linux anyway) journals data, only metadata.

That's not true, is it? ext3 and ext4 support journal=data.
