Subject: [PATCHv3 2/2] generic/496: ext4 and xfs supports swapon on fallocated file

ext4, xfs should not fail swapon on fallocated file. Currently if this
fails the fstst was not returning a failure. Fix those for given
filesystems (for now added ext4/xfs).
There were some regressions which went unnoticed due to this in ext4
tree, which later got fixed as part of this patch [1]
