Thanks Brian for writing the test! It crashed my 4.7-rc1 test vm as
expected. Looks good to me overall, some minor issues inline.

Some comments about why 64k dir block size is needed would be better.

Add an entry in common/config for something like UUIDGEN_PROG, and
'_require_command "$UUIDGEN_PROG" uuidgen' in the beginning of the test?

Good to have a '_require_xfs_io_command "fpunch"'.

We have a new helper to do this now, _scratch_cycle_mount.
And it's good to see some comments about the unmount/mount cycle.

Need "Silence is golden" to indicate no other outputs are expected.

It crashed my kernel very quickly, I guess 'quick' group makes sense
here (but I didn't test it). As well as 'rw' group.
