From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> commit 193b4e83986d7ee6caa8ceefb5ee9f58240fbee0 upstream. We are doing a BUG_ON() if we fail to update an inode after setting (or clearing) a xattr, but there's really no reason to not instead simply abort the transaction and return the error to the caller. This should be a rare error because we have previously reserved enough metadata space to update the inode and the delayed inode should have already been setup, so an -ENOSPC or -ENOMEM, which are the possible errors, are very unlikely to happen. So replace the BUG_ON()s with a transaction abort.
