Description Robert Watson freebsd_committer

When using tunefs to set parameters that cannot be modified on a live
file system, the error message may be counter-intuitive, suggesting that
the command both succeeded and failed:

newcyrus# tunefs -n enable /usr
tunefs: soft updates set
tunefs: cannot open /dev/ad0s1e: Device busy

Arguably, the soft updates set message should not be printed until the
call resulting in "Device busy" has succeeded.

How-To-Repeat: 
See above.
