Subject: [PATCH] xfstests: avoid ext4/306 failures caused by incompatible
 mount options

ext4/306 will fail when mounting the ext3 file system it creates if an
ext3-incompatible mount option is applied by _scratch_mount.  This can
happen if EXT_MOUNT_OPTIONS is defined appropriately in the test
environment.  For example, the block_validity option is commonly used
to enhance ext4 testing, and it is not supported by ext3.  Fix this by
not including any mount options defined by the test environment.
