275 was failing on ext4 because it doesn't reliably write until ENOSPC due to delalloc and crummy ENOSPC handling. So the attempts to fill the fs would fail, and this test, which was expecting to have exactly 4k free for the last write attempt, failed as well, because it was able to write more than the expected 4k. Change a few things: * Tidy up test description & comments * Keep files on scratch mount for failure analysis * Add a couple syncs here and there to push out delalloc * Make a last-ditch effort to fill fs via direct IO * Provide a little more detail on failure With this change I can pass the test on ext4. Fixing ext4's ENOSPC handling is probably another bug, but by working really hard to fill an ext4 fs, this test can achieve its specific goal.
