If you try running xfstests on lvm volumes which are symlinks,
it'll fail to run several tests because our _require_scratch
framework ultimately uses lstat not stat, and does not think
the lvm device (which is usually a symlink to a dm-X device)
is a block device. Sigh.
Last try at this - just resolve any symlinked devicenames
into their realpath(3) in common.config.
