-commit 6574665f9d6c0757e8f55ccb465afbcaa90bf019
-Author: Timotej Lazar <timotej.lazar@araneo.si>
-Date:   Wed Aug 19 19:36:02 2020 +0200

-    test: normalize flags reported by dumpe2fs
-    
-    Filesystem flags depend on the system – usually signed_directory_hash,
-    but unsigned_directory_hash at least on arm64.
-    
-    Signed-off-by: Timotej Lazar <timotej.lazar@araneo.si>
