Imported Josef Bacik's code from:
https://github.com/josefbacik/log-writes.git
Specialized program for replaying a write log that was recorded by
device mapper log-writes target. The tools is used to perform
crash consistency tests, allowing to run an arbitrary check tool
(fsck) at specified checkpoints in the write log.
[Amir:]
- Add project Makefile and SOURCE files
- Document the replay-log auxiliary program
- Address review comments by Eryu Guan

I'm working on a set of kernel patches to change how writeback errors
are handled and reported in the kernel. Instead of reporting a
writeback error to only the first fsync caller on the file, it has
the the kernel report them once on every file description that was
open at the time of the error.
This patch adds a test for this new behavior. Basically, open many fds
to the same file, turn on dm_error, write to each of the fds, and then
fsync them all to ensure that they all get an error back.
To do that, I'm adding a new tools/dmerror script that the C program
can use to load the error table from the script. It's also suitable for
setting up, frobbing and tearing down a dmerror device for by-hand testing.
For now, only ext2/3/4 and xfs are whitelisted on this test, since those
filesystems are included in the initial patchset. We can add to that as
we convert filesystems, and eventually make it a more general test.

More usage options for testing open_by_handle, which are needed
for testing stable handles across copy up in overlayfs.
usage: open_by_handle [-c|-l|-u|-d] <test_dir> [num_files]
Examples:
1. Create test set of N files and try to get their NFS handles:
open_by_handle -c <test_dir> [N]
This is used by new helper _require_exportfs() to check
if filesystem supports exportfs
2. Get file handles for existing test set, drop caches and try to
open all files by handle:
open_by_handle <test_dir> [N]
3. Get file handles for existing test set, unlink all test files,
drop caches, try to open all files by handle and expect ESTALE:
open_by_handle -d <test_dir> [N]
4. Get file handles for existing test set, hardlink all test files,
then unlink the original files, drop caches and try to open all
files by handle (should work):
open_by_handle -l <test_dir> [N]
open_by_handle -u <test_dir> [N]
This test is done with 2 invocations of the program, first to
hardlink (-l) and then to unlink the originals (-u), because
we would like to be able to perform the hardlinks on overlay
lower layer and unlink on upper layer.
NOTE that open_by_handle -u doesn't check if the files are
hardlinked, it just assumes that they are. If they are not
then the test will fail, because file handles would be stale.

Partially expand the documentation available in xfstests to include
requirements checking and auxiliary programs for testing.
