I have a question below.  I think this is probably
a good addition, though it should be made so it
works for more than EXTx.

If I understand the way it would be used, this will
simply be another operation that gets randomly performed
by fsstress while it operates, right?

I have not done any testing with this yet.

I don't understand the purpose of appending a "." to the
end of the path.  Do you intend to just use "." if
no other file matches?  (That may not be a good thing to
do--it might not be testing the intended target.)
  
Or are you intending to append "/." so for a directory
its "." link gets used in the open?  If so that's not
what this does (it simply makes "a/b/x" become "a/b/x.").

Same comments apply to setattr_f().
