Subject: [PATCH 3/3] common/ext4: provide custom ext4 scratch fs options

From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@...nel.org>

Create a _scratch_options backend for ext* so that we can inject
pathnames to external log devices into the scratch fs mount options.
This enables common/dm* to install block device filters, e.g. dm-error
for stress testing.
