Hmmm - I'd much prefer to see this added to xfs_io as it's a kernel
syscall that lots of filesystems will eventually implement. A
one-off binary for xfstests is fine for non-standard or deeply
filesysetm specific stuff, but if it's generic we try to put it into
xfs_io so that it's available to everyone writing scripts, not just
xfstests....

Cheers,

Dave.
