Forgot that was an option - doing that now.

It's not just the superblock we need to clear, it's really all metadata - the
journal, and btree nodes are also log structured in bcachefs. So 1M actually
isn't sufficient - the better solution would be to either

 - change the tests to check the markers in the log in the correct order, so
   we never see metadata from a future point in time, also making sure we don't
   do any writes to the filesystem when we're checking the different markers, or
 - just replay to a new dm-thin device

This is basically what I did for generic/482, the 1M zerout is really just a
hack for 455 and 457 and should probably be moved there, unless you've got
another suggestion.

Not sure how that got in, dropped it.

That dates from when my test environment had SIGPIPE set up wrong (systemd!),
it's fixed now so I've dropped these.

No - but with bcachefs fsck finding errors _always_ indicates a bug, so for the
purposes of these tests I think this is the right thing to do - I don't want the
tests to pass if fsck is finding and fixing errors.

Ok, I'll split those out.
