I'm confused; this patch set:

Daniel Gomez (5):
      common/config: fix RECREATE_TEST_DEV initialization
      common/rc: add recreation support for tmpfs
      common/config: enable section parsing when recreation
      common/rc: read config section mount options for scratch devs
      common/rc: print test mount options

seems to be mostly about how xfstest config section handling
especially for tmpfs.  Is this realy the right patch set?  If so, I'm
guessing that the reproducer would be very specific to the xfstests
config.

My {kvm,gce}-xfstest setup doesn't use the config sections at
all, but instead uses shell script fragments, since it predates config
sections by three years --- and I need something that works well with
sharding separate configs to run on separate cloud VM's.

So I'm not sure I'm going to be able to reprduce this easily using my
test setup.  Can you translate the stack trace to source file names /
line numbers?  Maybe that will give me a hint what's going on:

Getting line numbers for these two functions would be especially
helpful.
