We hit spurious errors with generic/274 with compression on because we attempt to fill up the disk with small writes, and these writes end up taking up metadata space instead of data space. Thus when we go to write into the preallocated area we get an ENOSPC, but from the metadata side and not the data side. Simply skip this test if we have compression enabled.
