  agreed.

  looks like its ok not to have FSTYP checked here, it will follow the
  following logic..

   btrfs FS OR any FS
     SCRATCH_DEV_POOL is unset and SCRATCH_DEV is set
      . test-case with _require_scratch_dev_pool will not run
      . test-case without _require_scratch_dev_pool will run

     SCRATCH_DEV_POOL is set and SCRATCH_DEV is unset
      . test-case with _require_scratch_dev_pool
          - runs only if FSTYP=btrfs
      . test-case without _require_scratch_dev_pool will run using first
        dev in the SCRATCH_DEV_POOL as a SCRATCH_DEV
          - if FSTYP=btrfs it includes SCRATCH_DEV_POOL disks to the FS
          - if FSTYP=non-btrfs SCRATCH_DEV_POOL is ignored

     SCRATCH_DEV_POOL is set and SCRATCH_DEV is set
      . reports error in the config

     SCRATCH_DEV_POOL is unset and SCRATCH_DEV is unset
      . no change

makes sense. added.

  Hmm. Changing this back to the original design - where calling
  function has to ensure a new directory name which does not exists.

oh! thks for pointing.

got it.

  ok.

  this can be considered when appropriate I think, as of now there is
  one test case in each of them.
Thanks
