That's my bad, sorry. I didn't spend much review bandwidth on test setup
preamble but focused more on test correctness.

I did post a patch, maybe a year ago, that went through all tests and
setup $tmp correctly (but not $here), and IIRC Amir suggested a similar
solution to your RFC patch. But that discussion only resulted in commit
81aa85deac1f ("fstests: remove tmp files properly") in the end.

I have no problem with going to that direction, the common setup
preamble also makes review easier, I don't have to search for "tmp" and
"here" etc but just common/setup_test.

Thanks a lot for doing it!
