shared/272 fails with kernels v4.15-rc1 and beyond when you are mounted
with DAX:

This is expected.  The following kernel commit:

commit e9072d859df3 ("ext4: prevent data corruption with journaling + DAX")

makes "chattr +j", which is attempting to turn on data journaling, return
-EBUSY if the ext4 DAX mount option is in use.  This was done to prevent
the data corruption shown in xfstest ext4/030, added by this xfstests
commit:

commit 750a24e99e48 ("ext4: test for DAX + journaling corruption")

So, just skip shared/272 if the DAX mount option is in use.
