The list of free extent items at xfs_defer_pending->dfp_work could
now contain XFS_EFI_MAX_FAST_EXTENTS (i.e. 16) entries in the worst case.

For a single transaction, xfs_calc_itruncate_reservation() reserves space for
logging only 4 extents (i.e. 4 exts * 2 trees * (2 * max depth - 1) * block
size). But with the above change, a single transaction can now free upto 16
extents. Wouldn't this overflow the reserved log space?
