iotests: Disable 125 on broken XFS versions

And by that I mean all XFS versions, as far as I can tell.  All details
are in the comment below.

We never noticed this problem because we only read the first number from
qemu-img info's "disk size" output -- and that is effectively useless,
because qemu-img prints a human-readable value (which generally includes
a decimal point).  That will be fixed in the next patch.

# Test whether we are running on a broken XFS version. There is this
# bug:
# $ rm -f foo
# $ touch foo
# $ block_size=4096 # Your FS's block size
# $ fallocate -o $((block_size / 2)) -l $block_size foo
# $ LANG=C xfs_bmap foo | grep hole
# 1: [8..15]: hole
#
# The problem is that the XFS driver rounds down the offset and
# rounds up the length to the block size, but independently. As
# such, it only allocates the first block in the example above,
# even though it should allocate the first two blocks (because our
# request is to fallocate something that touches both the first
# two blocks).
#
# This means that when you then write to the beginning of the
# second block, the disk usage of the first two blocks grows.
#
# That is precisely what fallocate() promises, though: That when you
# write to an area that you have fallocated, no new blocks will have
# to be allocated.
touch "$TEST_IMG_FILE"
# Assuming there is no FS with a block size greater than 64k
fallocate -o 65535 -l 2 "$TEST_IMG_FILE"
len0=$(get_image_size_on_host)
# Write to something that in theory we have just fallocated
# (Thus, the on-disk size should not increase)

# Generally, we create some image with or without existing preallocation and

# size does not change if we have used preallocation.
