The test itselt looks good enough, but I have some comments on the
pool infrastructure changes. I also think they should probably be
a separate preparatory patch, or at least documented in the changelog
as well.

How does one find out what the pool name is? You'll also need to
document how to create the pool from disks.

Why do we need a second FSTYP detection? If the existing one isn't
early enough make sure it's done early enough instead of duplicating
it.

I'd rather see the randomdata flag passed down explicitly to _descend and
_nfiles rather than setting a magic environment variable.

Why would the directory here already exist? This at least needs
very good documentation. Also the indentation seems off compared
to the surrounding code.

indendation is off again.

For new code I'd generally prefer the more readable
if [ ... ]; then
although the above form unfortunately still is fairly common in
xfsprogs.

This code looks a bit fragile to me, but I think we can fix it on the go
if we encouter issues.

It might be worth to add pool or snaphot groups if you add more
tests like this.
