But after this patch all test which didn't check os start to check linux
(as it's default).. So all tests which worked on other platforms will now
be skipped on these other platforms?

Finally do we support something except linux for iotests?
for bash tests _supported_os also used only with "Linux" in 87 tests..

May be we'd better drop both _supported_os and supported_oses alltogether,
and don't care?

Anyway, if we support only linux, any reason to skip almost all tests,
if someone tries to run test on other platform? Let him run what he wants.

Hmm, now two different styles of code documenting used: comment and doc-string,
both containing almost equal meaning.. I don't like it, still don't really mind.
