From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> During writeback, it's possible for the quota block reservation in xfs_iomap_write_unwritten to fail with EDQUOT because we hit the quota limit. This causes writeback errors for data that was already written to disk, when it's not even guaranteed that the bmbt will expand to exceed the quota limit. Irritatingly, this condition is reported to userspace as EIO by fsync, which is confusing. We wrote the data, so allow the reservation. That might put us slightly above the hard limit, but it's better than losing data after a write. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
