Bug Description
The man page for xfs_admin -L does not preclude using spaces in the quoted string. However, a usage error message is printed when this is attempted such as:
# xfs_admin -L "My Label" /dev/sda1
Usage: xfs_admin [-efjlpuV] [-c 0|1] [-L label] [-U uuid] device
If this is indeed the coded restriction then the man page should be updated to specify that only a string without spaces is allowed.
Otherwise, if spaces are intended to be allowed, there is a bug in doing so.
Tested against Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
