That is stil not equivalent if you run it with a whole LTP. We would
have to run each test that uses device for all LTP_FILESYSTEMS, since
many of the testcases does use device but does not use .all_filesystems.

So all in all I think that LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE is good enough solution.

Or we can try to rething the whole thing, but it's getting quite
complicated with all the options we have.
