From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Source kernel commit: 6aac77059881e4419df499392c995bf02fb9630b Currently the debug-only xfs_bmap_exact_minlen_extent_alloc allocation variant fails to drop into the lowmode last resort allocator, and thus can sometimes fail allocations for which the caller has a transaction block reservation. Fix this by using xfs_bmap_btalloc_low_space to do the actual allocation. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.
