[PATCH 0/2] skip tests that don't work with an external log

["Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>]

I recently tried running xfstests with an external log device, and
found a number of failures caused by the fact that we use dmflakey and
dmerror to take down a disk to simulate a power failure or a complete
hard disk failure.  But with an external log device, the tests don't
correctly simulate these scenarios, so skip them.

With these patches, testing with ext4 using an external log is passing
almost all of the auto group tests, with the exception of ext4/028
(which appears to be a genuine ext4 fsmap bug not handling external
log devices correctly).

  dmflakey: don't run dmflakey tests with an external log device
