Couple of things:

This is unreadable, and therefore I'd consider that these changes
render _test_generic_punch unmaintainable.

Either it needs tobe factored to be more readable, or we need a more
readable way of representing the offsets and sizes if we want them
to be variable. For example:

_4k="$((multiple * 4))k"
_8k="$((multiple * 8))k"
_20k="$((multiple * 20))k"

leads to:

		$XFS_IO_PROG -f -c "truncate $_20k" \
			-c "$alloc_cmd 0 $_8k" \
			-c "pwrite $_8k $_8k" $sync_cmd \
			-c "$zero_cmd $_4k $_8k" \
			-c "$map_cmd -v" $testfile | $filter_cmd

which is still readable and allows us to arbitrarily scale the
parameters. It even allows us to handle different filesystem block
sizes if we really want to....

No need to remove the test files here - we remove them at
test startup to ensure we have a known initial state....

This error appears in all the golden outputs. If it's correct, then
perhaps it should be filtered out or commented somewhere to explain
why it is expected.

Cheers,

Dave.
