I would happily add my tags to the test except that as a general
principal, I don't want to deal with tests that fail if an unexpected
error number is returned.

Unless something can be done (e.g. with meta-data), so that TST_EXP_FAIL
and similar can be reduced to a TCONF when the wrong errno is returned.

For instance, this would allow running the tests with a seccomp BPF
profile, LSM, CGroup or /proc bind mount that blocks the write.

Or you could just seperate the tests I guess. Then the reset can be
checked while skipping the errno checks.
