		     It's kind of strange to name this variable anything

	    Extra space.

	 Useless comment, it's pretty clear what we do here.

I do not like that this API is tailored just to this specific usecase.

I would rather see the code that writes the file separated from the code
that measures the bytes written.

Maybe we just need a tst_dev_bytes_written() function that would return
the bytes written since the last call of the function so that we could
do:

	fd = SAFE_OPEN(...);

	tst_dev_blocks_written(tst_device.dev);

	tst_fill_fd(fd, 0, TST_MB, size_mb);

	TEST(fdsync(fd));

	if (TST_RET)
		tst_brk(TFAIL | TTERRNO, "syncfd() failed with %i", TST_RET);

	written = tst_dev_blocks_written(tst_device.dev);

	SAFE_CLOSE(fd);

	if (written >= size_mb * TST_DEV_BLOCKS_IN_MB)
		tst_res(TPASS, ...);
	else
		tst_res(TFAIL, ...);


The test a bit longer, but the library functions are more reusable, if
you do 'git grep -B 1 SAFE_WRITE' you can see that the tst_fill_fd
function that loops over SAFE_WRITE could be used in a few places
already.
