Yeah, I definitely need to write a fstest that can trip this bug on
smaller fsblock filesystems.  In the meantime, this one should not fail
just because xfs runs out of space before the point where this test
would have thought that would happen; and then xfs_io spews an error
message into the golden output.

Though if this is really a test that computes when *btrfs* would run out
of space and drives towards that point just to see if ENOSPC does /not/
come out of the kernel, then maybe this belongs in tests/btrfs/ ?
