Block size can change based on mkfs parameters. You should extract
this dynamically from the filesystem the test is being run on.

What is "fact" supposed to mean?

Indeed, wouldn't this simply be better as something like:

larger_than_ext4_fg_size=$((32768 * $blksize * 18))

And then

	test_falloc $i "-k " $larger_than_ext4_fg_size

And just scrub all the sizes from the golden output?

Cheers,
