When run on ext4 with sufficiently fast x86_64 hardware, generic/130
sometimes fails because xfs_io can report rate values as -nan:
0.000000 bytes, 0 ops; 0.0000 sec (-nan bytes/sec and -nan ops/sec)

_filter_xfs_io matches the strings 'inf' or 'nan', but not '-nan'.  In
that case it fails to convert the actual output to a normalized form
matching generic/130's golden output.  Extend the regular expression
used to match xfs_io's output to fix this.

/me squints at this regular expression and /thinks/ its ok.

Took me a while to figure out "infa" tho. :P

Hi Darrick:

Yeah, me too.  I initially thought that string would not match 'nan', but
then discovered bracket expressions after having not used sed in a very long
time.  It's a sloppy match - it'll recognize fan0 as well as 'inf' or 'nan',
etc. - and I guess the idea is that's good enough for filtering expected output
from xfs_io while being concise.  The sed documentation suggests that a '-' on
the beginning or end of the bracket expression will be treated literally, and
not as a metacharacter (part of a range), so we should be good there.

Thanks very much for your review!
