So I find this change strange, not because it doesn't make sense
to start every test with scratch unmounted, but because today scratch *is*
mounted on test start and there is quite a bit of code to make it mounted
on test start, which seems backwards.

IOW, instead of unmounting scratch just before the test runs, seems
better to make sure it is unmounted at the end of each test and before
starting the loop.

Note that for a test with _require_scratch_nocheck, _check_filesystems()
will unmount scratch, but for a test with _require_scratch, _check_scratch_fs()
will unmount+fsck+mount scratch - inconsistent.
Or am I reading this wrong?

Please check that $SCRATCH_DEV is not a network name (nfs|cifs) and that it
is really a blockdev (overlayfs) before trying to wipefs.

Thanks,
Amir.
