Yes these 2 tests are similar however 061 uses fallocate=native +
_scratch_mkfs_ext4 to test whether atomic writes on preallocated file
via multiple threads works correctly.

The 062 uses fallocate=truncate + _scratch_mkfs_sized 360MB +
'multiple jobs each writing to a different file' to ensure we are
extensively stressing the allocation logic in low space scenarios.

I see, please at least fully document this in the commit messages.

Thanks
