A bug in file cloning/reflinking was recently found that afftected both
Btrfs and XFS, which was caused by allowing the cloning of an eof block
into the middle of a file when the eof is not aligned to the filesystem's
block size.
The fix consists of returning the errno -EINVAL to user space when the
arguments passed to the system call lead to the scenario of data
corruption. However this overlaps with some cases where the system call,
in Btrfs, returned -EOPNOTSUPP, which means we are trying to reflink
inline extents. That is unsupported in Btrfs due to the huge complexity
of supporting it (due to copying and trimming inline extents, deal with
eventual compression, etc).
We have a few btrfs test cases that verify that attempts to clone inline
extents result in a failure, and are currently expecting an -EINVAL error
message from the output of the cloner program. So create a filter that
converts error messages related to the -EOPNOTSUPP error to messages
related to the -EINVAL error, so that the test can run both on patched
and non-patched linux kernels.
The corresponding btrfs patch for the linux kernel is titled:
"Btrfs: fix data corruption due to cloning of eof block"
And the VFS change that introduces the -EINVAL error return was introduced
by the following linux kernel commit (landed in 4.20-rc1):
07d19dc9fbe9 ("vfs: avoid problematic remapping requests into partial EOF block")
The btrfs patch is not yet in Linus' tree (it was submitted around the
same time as this change) and the VFS change was introduced in 4.10-rc1.

This commit makes use of the new _filter_xfs_io_blocks_modified filtering
function to print information in terms of file blocks rather than file
offset.

This tests that we can not clone an inline extent into a non-zero file
offset. Inline extents at non-zero offsets is something btrfs is not
prepared for and results in all sorts of corruption and crashes on
future IO operations, such as the following BUG_ON() triggered by the
last write operation done by this test:
