I'm trying to figure out what the test is doing, but it is not very
clear. At a guess I'd say that perhaps it is trying to mount multiple
filesystems with the same label? If that is the case then it is not
allowed, and it should be caught be the sysfs code and result in a
refusal to mount, which is what I think I see here. Knowing which sysfs
directory is involved would allow us to confirm, but I suspect that the
test needs altering to give each gfs2 mount a different label at an
initial guess,

Steve.
