_have_xfs() does return true/false and can be used with && or in a conditional. Per [1], my opinion is that using && in the requires() function where the return value is ignored is confusing so I prefer not to do it in new code. If we want to reconsider this we, should add a check to ensure the return value of requires() matches the expectation of the global variable it uses.
