Hi Ted,

I fully understood your words and I have been executing generic/231 test case
again and again with linux-4.6.0-rc4, linux-4.6.0-rc5 and the latest source codes
of ext4 git server.

But, whenever I execute the test case, it is always passed.
I think the difference of the test results is originated from the difference between
your test environment and mine, however I cannot figure out that.

Actually, I just used kvm-xftests because GCE site cannot be accessed in
our company by security reasons.

Could you suggest some directions for me?
