Talking about xfs/434, it just caused me some nasty debugging headache
last week.  It is the first of only three tests requiring a loadable
xfs module, and when there is an xfs.ko for the uname around but xfs
is built into the kernel as it is for my usual test configs it fails
in completely weird and hard to debug ways.

The fact that it requires a modular xfs might also be the reason why
it's rarely run.

The fix itself looks good:
