v4: respin set based on Eryu's comments These tests are companion tests to the patchset I recently posted with the cover letter: [PATCH v6 00/20] fs: enhanced writeback error reporting with errseq_t (pile #1) This set just adds 3 new xfstests to test writeback behavior. One generic filesystem test, one test for raw block devices, and one test for btrfs. The tests work with dmerror to ensure that writeback fails, and then tests how the kernel reports errors afterward. xfs, ext2/3/4 and btrfs all pass on a kernel with the patchset above. The one comment I couldn't really address from earlier review is that we don't have a great way for xfstests to tell what sort of error reporting behavior it should expect from the running kernel. That makes it difficult to tell whether failure is expected during a given run. Maybe that's OK though and we should just let unconverted filesystems fail this test?
