However there's the case where multiple threads can be racing, one thread gets the proper error, and the other thread doesn't actually call btrfs_cache_block_group(), it instead sees ->cached == BTRFS_CACHE_ERROR. Again the result is the same, we fail to allocate our space and return -ENOSPC. Instead we need to set cache_block_group_error to -EIO in this case to make sure that if we do not make our allocation we get the appropriate error returned back to the caller.
