I think that we have a but in the test library, it looks like we do not
check for the kernel support if we have only one filesystem defined in
the tst_test.filesystems.

The problem is that we are trying to avoid formatting and mounting the
filesystem for each test iteration (if -i 10 is passed) but that means
that we skip the filesystem kernel support. We only check for mkfs in
the setup and prepare the device.

This should fix it:
