I did spend some time on the return value handling, because I didn't
want to do so many "return"s, and I confirmed that assigning a value
does reset $? to 0 too, so mkfs_status is always defined.

But apparently I forgot that I can group these cases together, this
saves us three "return 0"s, and the logic is easier to understand, I'll
take this approach.

I thought about it too, but I noticed that there're some codes to setup
large fs in _scratch_mkfs_{xfs,ext4}, so I didn't dig into them.

But now I think it actually can be done, and I'm testing an updated
patch, will send v2 for review later, after the new patch passes my
testing.

Thanks for the review!
