This assumes that MKFS_OPTIONS reflects the file system features
enabled on the file system. That's true by definition for the scratch
fs, but it's not necessarily true for the test fs. At least in
theory, someone could run fstests without a scrach device, and then
MKFS_OPTION?S might not be set.
I'm not sure that we care; is this something that we make assumptions
in other tests?
