Hi y'all,

The first two patches are minor cleanup patches. The first changes
some tests that can leave large deposits on the test fs when they
fail and that can lead to ENOSPC issues on small test devices. The
second is another test that shouldn't check the scratch device at
the end.

The remaining three patches are new generic tests that exercise data
corruption issues that we've tripped over in the past week on XFS.
The test cases have been isolated by Brian Foster and Eric Sandeen -
they deserve the credit for narrowing down the minimal tests to
expose the problems. I just added a few more corner cases and
packaged them for xfstests.

These failures manifest on block size smaller than page size
filesystems, and we have XFS fixes pending for these failures:

Ext4 folks, can you confirm that both the truncate tests fail on
ext4 with data corruption on 1k/2k filesystems? I'm pretty sure that
I have the corrupt hexdump outputs in the golden output files for
the tests and if I have that means ext4 is corrupting data in a
similar manner to XFS.  Eric is already looking at this but
could probably use some more help. ;)

-Dave.
