When I run a fio testing with a partition on one of my machines, I hit below bug
checking. It's a  fio_mmap_randwrite_4k_preread testing. I'm not sure if it happens
after the testing and before the next testing, or just happens when the testing is
ongoing. When I see it, next testing stops at the beginning when mounting the partition.
