From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>
If we somehow end up with a filesystem that has fewer free blocks than
the blocks set aside to avoid ENOSPC deadlocks, it's possible that the
free space calculation in xfs_reserve_blocks will spit out a negative
number (because percpu_counter_sum returns s64). We fail to notice
this negative number and set fdblks_delta to it. Now we increment
fdblocks(!) and the unsigned type of m_resblks means that we end up
setting a ridiculously huge m_resblks reservation.
Avoid this comedy of errors by detecting the negative free space and
returning -ENOSPC.
