I managed to get fstests running, sorry about that...

For the v3 I have ready (which includes a new test using -M), the
following runs work in my VM:

- ./check -g exportfs
- ./check -overlay -g exportfs

Should I check anything else before sending it?

Also, when running the tests I think I may have found a bug? Using
overlayfs+xfs leads to the following error when doing ./check -overlay
if the scratch device is XFS:

./common/rc: line 299: _xfs_has_feature: command not found
not run: upper fs needs to support d_type

The fix I applied was simply:

diff --git a/common/rc b/common/rc
index 0beaf2ff1126..e6af1b16918f 100644
--- a/common/rc
+++ b/common/rc

case "$fstyp" in
xfs)
+ . common/xfs
_xfs_has_feature $dir ftype
;;

Should I include this patch as well, or did I make a mistake somewhere?
(I could add the import to the top instead if you'd prefer that.)

Thanks.
