I haven't been able to beat xfs_io into submission here; it requires unlinking
as well, and even after patching & adding an unlink into the mix:

xfs_io -x -c "open -f mnt/file1" -c "pwrite 0 4k" -c close -c "open -f mnt/file2" -c "pwrite 0 4k" -c unlink -c "swapext mnt/file1" -c "shutdown -f"

I can't seem to make this reproduce.  Not sure why.  I'd rather just stick with the proven reproducer.
