				   Maybe we should just remove the
				   "known to fail" from these messages.

Since the code in the library will print:

---
You _MAY_ be hit by known kernel failures:

ustat() is known to fail with EINVAL on Btrfs
---

so the 'known to fail' part is redundant here.

What about:

---
You _MAY_ be hit by known kernel failures:

ustat() fails with EINVAL on Btrfs
---

Other than this I think that this is a good way how to put these kind of
hints into the testcases.


Also I do wonder if there is a good URL that would contain more verbose
description of the problem but I guess there isn't. Well maybe this one:

https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg95697.html

Not sure how to encode that, maybe just add it to the test top level
comment?
