dmflakey works by dropping all writes before unmounting to similate a
crash/power loss. This doesn't work if there is an external log
device, since we only drop writes to the primary block device, and not
the external log device. Fixing this for real would require somehow
arranging to atomically loading a new dmflakey table for two block
devices at the same time, so for now, just skip tests using dmflakey
if the external log device is enabled.
