The test is expected to fail on all kernels without the series.
The series is a bugfix in the sense that vfs is no longer allowed to
set timestamps that filesystems have no way of supporting.
There have been a couple of fixes after the series also.
We can either disable the test or include the series for stable kernels.
I don't see adding this series for the stable kernels, it does not make
sense.
I can disable the test from running within the xfs tests if needed.
But, how is it done for new tests that rely on features not present on
the stable kernels?
Xiong's version of the test should be able to mask/skip the test based
on a kernel
or distro version, but unsure how to mask if missing a specific feature,
I'm hoping
Xiong can help answer that.
