PATCH 1/1 xfstests: Assume yes when test device is not partitioned

If an entire device used for file system creation, the mkfs.ext2/3/4 asks for confirmation before proceeding. Since the device is configured for testing it is safe to assume positive response during mkfs.

The patch also replaces hard coded mkfs path with MKFS_PROG variable.

Thanks for submitting a patch, Prasad (and Chaitanya).

Can you please re-submit this? Based on feedback what we're looking for would be:
[PATCH 0/2] description e-mail
[PATCH 1/2] patch that substitutes /sbin/mkfs with ${MKFS_PROG} [PATCH 2/2] patch that adds a '-f' flag to ${MKFS_PROG}.${FSTYP}
for all ext* filesystem types.

Thanks.

Oh, and while I'm thinking about it...

/sbin/mkfs.${FSTYP} and ${MKFS_PROG}.${FSTYP} are most likely incorrect. The switch to MKFS_PROG at least finds where the mkfs executable lies, but in theory anyway there is no guarantee that, for example, the mkfs.xfs program lies in the same directory. The mkfs executable uses the PATH (via execvp()) to find the filesystem-specific mkfs program to use, and I expect we should work the same way.
