But if that was your goal, why did you use the largest possible
filename length for the subdirectories?  And why did you use a 1k
block filesystem?  Both of these are totally unnecessary if the goal
is to test the limit of the number of ext4 subdirectories, and are
*ideal* if you are trying to detect the htree limit.

Well, are you annoyed enough to help to try to solve the problem?  In
actual practice very few people have run across the htree limit as far
as I know.
