swapext owner changes required btree format inodes. I don't think a
single 4k write is going to be enough. Indeed, if I do something like
the following:

	xfs_io -fc "falloc 0 100m" /mnt/file1
	xfs_io -fc "falloc 0 100m" /mnt/file2
	xfstests-dev/src/punch-alternating /mnt/file1
	xfstests-dev/src/punch-alternating /mnt/file2
	xfs_io -c "swapext /mnt/file1" /mnt/file2
	rm -f /mnt/file1
	xfs_io -xc "shutdown -f" /mnt/

I see this on a subsequent mount:

	# umount  /mnt ; mount /dev/test/scratch /mnt 
	mount: /mnt: mount(2) system call failed: Structure needs cleaning.

(which I haven't actually confirmed is the original problem).
