PATCH 1/1 tests/xfs/040: document purpose
Getting xfs/040 to "pass" takes a bit of effort, however the effort to require updating xfsprogs is purely an xfsprogs maintainer task only. There no functional gain by users of xfs or a QA team to get this test to pass. This is not trivial from the current description so document this.
