This case tests truncate/collapse range race. If
the race occurs, it will trigger BUG_ON.

What changed from the previous version?

The previous version of this ran a loop for 3 minutes, which we
talked about being too long. This loop forks 300,000 processes
and generates a 1.5MB $seqres.full file.  On my single CPU test VM 
it takes:

generic/039      302s

About 5 minutes to run, so it takes longer than the 3 minute version
of the same test we said was too long. FYI, my 16p test VM still
takes 35s to crunch through this test and it pegs all 16 CPUs to
100% usage.

We don't need to record the output of the xfs_io commands, so
avoiding a fork and throwing away the output such as:

	$XFS_IO_PROG -f -c 'truncate 100k' \
			-c 'fcollapse 0 16k' \
			$testfile > /dev/null 2>&1

makes the runtime on the 16p VM drop by 40% (22s) and by 33% (200s)
on the single CPU VM. but that's still too long on the smaller CPU
systems.

I think the loop iterations need to be tuned to the number of CPUs
in the system. This:

NCPUS=`$here/src/feature -o`
OUTER_LOOPS=$((10 * $NCPUS * $LOAD_FACTOR))
INNER_LOOPS=$((50 * $NCPUS * $LOAD_FACTOR))

plus the above xfs_io optimisations give a runtime of 3s on my 1p
machien and 30s on my 16p machine. That would be more acceptible
to everyone, I think.

A kernel bug in a process with an open file descriptor will cause
the filesystem to be unmountable. It will hang the test, require a
reboot.  Hence there's no point in checking dmesg for a bug message
as it will be noticed by the test failing to complete.

The test needs to echo something to indicate that an empty golden
output file is expected. "Silence is golden" is the usual phrase
here....

With the addition of $LOAD_FACTOR, this can be added to the stress
group as well.

Cheers,

Dave.

Compared with the previous version?there are mainly two changes:
(1) Since this patch only checks for the truncate/collapse range race,
the description of previous version is not clear. I changed the description.
(2) Considering the different performance of each test machine, it is
not reasonable to set a run loop for a fixed time eg. 3 minutes in the
previous version. I changed the form of loop.

Got it.
Thanks for your suggestion!
