Patch-1: modifies _require_scratch_swapfile() to check swapon only for btrfs
I don't think it's a good idea, if a new fs without swapfile support is
tested by fstests, test would get false failure, where it should
_notrun. And making a generic requirement check to fs-specific doesn't
seem quite right either.
Patch-2: adds a swapfile test for fallocate files for ext4, xfs (assuming
both FS supports and thus should pass).
As Brian mentioned in his review, we're in the process to convert all
shared tests to generic or fs-specific tests (very slow though), that
said we don't want new shared tests.
I think we could whitelist fs types in _require_scratch_swapfile() and
don't _notrun for such filesystems, something like what we did in
_fstyp_has_non_default_seek_data_hole(), so that we won't miss silent
regressions on sucn filesystems, and we'll do sanity check as well on
other filesystems.
Nice idea. Let me check that part.
Patch-3: added to support tests to run when multiple config section present
in local.config file.
I have a patch[1] that should fix the issue 3 years ago, but it never
got reviewed, would you please check and see if it fixed the bug for you?

Sure, will test it and get back.
Sorry about the delay from my end on this patch series. I got pulled
into something else. Let me work on your suggestions.
