Unfortunately for me the swapon just looks for the symlink
(util-linux-2.19.1) while blkid -t also reads first 512 bytes of each
block device. So I guess that using blkid will not help in this case.
Then what about just changing the 'tst_resm TWARN "The file $path
haven't appeared"' from TWARN to TINFO?
