From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit b6d08f0630d51ec09d67f16f6d7839699bbc0402 upstream.

I've been testing our error paths and I was tripping the BUG_ON() in
drop_outstanding_extent because our outstanding_extents is 0 for space cache
inodes.  This is because we don't reserve metadata space for these inodes since
we depend on the global block reserve for our space.  To fix this we need to
make sure the DO_ACCOUNTING stuff doesn't actually call release_metadata for
space cache inodes.  With this patch I'm no longer panicing.  Thanks,
