Right - we have _scratch_mount_options() for returning the
configured mount options for a scratch device.  We should extract a
similar helper out of _test_mount(), and use them appropriately
where necessary.

i.e. nothing should really be using $MOUNT_OPTIONS or
$TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS directly - they should always get them from
the _scratch_mount_options/_test_mount_options functions...

Dave.
