Therefore it returns a dirty transaction to the caller, which leaves the caller at risk of exceeding the transaction reservation if it logs more items. Brian Foster's patchset to move the defer_ops firstblock into the transaction requires t_firstblock == NULLFSBLOCK upon defer_ops initialization, which is how this was noticed at all.
