To avoid having many tests repeating the following pattern:
_load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_DROP_WRITES
_unmount_flakey
_load_flakey_table $FLAKEY_ALLOW_WRITES
_mount_flakey
add the helper function _flakey_drop_and_remount to remove
the existing duplicated code and serve as a shortcut.

generic/085 was failing on a machine w/o devicemapper kernel
support because it requires the linear target, but didn't
explicitly test for it.
I could have cut & pasted _require_dm_linear(), but chose
to go the route of a generic helper, _require_dm_target $FOO,
because some day someone will need the zero target, the error
target, or who knows.
Add the helper, use it in test generic/085, and convert
_require_dm_flakey, _require_dm_snapshot, and
_dmerror_required with this new helper.

Many tests use dm_flakey to trigger log replay, but for filesystems that
don't support metadata journaling, this causes failures when it shouldn't.
(i.e. we can hardly test log replay if there is no log, and the subsequent
filesystem check will turn up errors).
For some tests they actually sync everything we care about, and find
inconsistencies elsewhere, but I erred on the side of simply not running
the test in most cases.

This test is motivated by an fsync issue discovered in btrfs.
The issue was that we could lose file data, that was previously
fsync'ed successfully, if we end up adding a hard link to our
inode and then persist the fsync log later via an fsync of other
inode for example. This is similar to my previous test, except
that in this test the inode that ends up losing data was created
(with some data) in a transaction different from the one we made
an fsync.
The btrfs issue was fixed by the following linux kernel patch:
