I performed regression testing by mounting specific images that can be
obtained through fault injection on kernels without metadir feature support.
I can provide it if anyone needs it.The image is big and inconvenient to send
in the mail. The detailed steps are as follows:

1) Kernel Build
  - The latest realtime AG update bug [1] remains unfixed
  - Build kernel without CONFIG_XFS_RT
  
2) Mount XFS Image (superblock needs replay, incompatible with metadir and
   no realtime subvolume)

3) Mount Result Verification
  - Without the current patch: mount thread hangs indefinitely
  - With the current patch: mount thread does not hang, but XFS is shut down

The xfstests already have the fault injection test, and this test requires
mounting specific images on specifically-compiled kernels, making it impractical
to incorporate into xfstests.
