Hi Brian,

I'm still not really convinced this test should be added to generic, this tests
a very specific behavior of XFS journal, the journal behavior on XFS and ext4
for example, are very different,

either ext4 or btrfs for example, will remount the filesystem as RO during the
xfs_io process to fill the filesystem, so, even though the filesystem can keep
consistency, the test shows it as a failure.

What do you think? I honestly believe it would be better to keep this test as a
XFS test, the behavior here is XFS specific.

cheers
