The _xfs_check sometimes need to take too much memory, some quota related cases (e.g: xfs/442, generic/232 etc) always trigger OOM killer.

But the xfstests always do a POST-xfs_check at the end of each cases. So I'd like to add a new helper named _require_scratch_no_xfs_check to skip xfs_check from some sub-cases.
