It is necessary to umount and then mount the FS in between populating the FS
and renaming the files. flat_dir_test also renames *everything*, which is why
you need the "-depth" so that the renames don't break find:
find $mnt/testdir -depth | while read f; do
mv $f $f.longer
done
This doesn't affect the script's ability to reproduce errors; it just makes it
run faster. The errors I see look like this:
[ 51.207952] EXT4-fs error (device vda): ext4_generic_delete_entry:2118: inode #4332: block 687: comm mv: bad entry in directory: rec_len % 4 != 0 - offset=0(0), inode=33188, rec_len=1201, name_len=0
