Ok, so the issue is that for this particular test configuration, btrfs
has a minimum file system size.  What about changing
_scratch_mkfs_sized so that if MIN_FS_SIZE is set, the file system
created will be at least MIN_FS_SIZE in size.

This way it sets the minimum file system size for all tests, not just
generic/224, and any test configuration, whether it be ext4, xfs, or
btrfs where the data and metadata block size are the same, don't have
to take extra time -- only the test configuration of btrfs with
data_block_size != metadata_block_size.

Cheers,
