Yeh, sorry about that. Attaching patch here until v2 is posted to fstests.

Test is not_run when delalloc is not supported.
I should explain.
This test is inspired by a simple test script I wrote
https://github.com/amir73il/overlayfs/blob/master/tests/xfs_syncfs.sh

At the time when I *thought* I fixed syncfs, I couldn't figure out a way
to write a generic test so I left it at that.

The delalloc trick, which I recently added to the script is just a very cheap
way of testing that inode pages are flushed.
If fs doesn't support delalloc, then test would have to use dm-flakey or a like
and compare size/md5sum on disk to expected.
That is a much more heavy weight test and I can't think of how to combine
dm-flakey setup with overlay setup.

It is just too much of a hustle considering that the delalloc trick is so cheap
and works on several major fs.

Actually, it is quite not nice not to run the test on old kernels.
Better check for availability of syncfs and if it exists add it to
SYNC_MODES to be tested.

This test does not guaranty failure on buggy fs, but it does provide
very very high
probability of failure on buggy fs. Anything else would be much more
complicated.
Anything else would also not be as quick, because it will require writing large
amounts of data and waiting for sync/fsync/syncfs to flush them after
every write.

I suggest to merge this test as is and add commentary about the possibility
of false negative.

Chengguang may continue to work on another test that is more reliable and
doesn't require delalloc support if he chooses to.

Thanks,
Amir.
