Ah, now I remember.  In my old xfs-tools tree I had simply ripped out
that code since Linux LVM doesn't support subvolumes at all.

If we have external realtime/log sections, the application using
libsim should require those to be specified on the command line (I did
implement that for mkfs).

Instead of fixing cmd/*, perhaps we should provide some generic sanity
checking in sim_init()?
