[PATCH v2 0/1] generic/{453,454}: Do NOT run for FSs restricting names

[Pavel Reichl]

Hello,

this is a quick attempt to finish what was discussed in thread:
	generic/453: Exclude filenames that are not supported by exfat
	https://www.spinics.net/lists/fstests/msg16328.html

Based on Darrick's comments:

"""
TBH I think these tests (g/453 and g/454) are probably only useful for
filesystems that allow unrestricted byte streams for names.
"""

and_require_names_are_bytes()

"""
Nowadays with wider testing of other filesystems (thanks, Red Hat!) we
should hide these behind _require_names_are_bytes or move them to
tests/xfs/.
"""

Changes in V2:
* Added description for _require_names_are_bytes()
* Added _require_names_are_bytes() to g/454 as well
* fixed typo s/now/not/

[PATCH v2 1/1] generic/{453,454}: Don't run for FSs restricting names

[Pavel Reichl]

Running generic/{453,454} tests is probably only useful for filesystems
that allow unrestricted byte streams for names.
