Due to filesystem write caching the old configuration data could stay out of flash for a long time during a first boot after the sysupgrade. Power loss during this period could damage the overlay data and even make device inaccessable via the network.
Fix this by syncing data to a flash as soon as the previous configuration will be unpacked after the sysupgrade. Also sync the FS state after the sysupgrade.tgz archive removing to prevent duplicative extraction of a previous configuration. Tested with AMD Geode based board.
