Volume creation: Cannot specify Datastore name when using xfs #2084

@Foxi352

Description

@Foxi352

Environment:
ESXi: 6.5U2
Docker: 18.03.1-ce
Host OS: Photon OS 2.0

Specifying the target datastore by using the @ in the volume name does not work when using the xfs fstype.

Example using ext4:

root@srvdocker-admin [ ~ ]# docker volume create --driver=vsphere --name=toto@DAS-VMFS -o size=1gb  -o diskformat=thin
toto@DAS-VMFS

Everything is fine. But when using the xfs type:

root@srvdocker-admin [ ~ ]# docker volume create --driver=vsphere --name=toto@DAS-VMFS -o size=1gb  -o diskformat=thin -o fstype=xfs
Error response from daemon: create toto@DAS-VMFS: VolumeDriver.Create: Failed to create filesystem on /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:03:00.0-scsi-0:0:1:0: exit status 1. Output = Illegal value toto@DAS-VMFS for -L option

<value> is xxx (512 byte blocks).
