Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: fallback if compressed IO fails for ENOSPC

In commit b4ccace878f4 ("btrfs: refactor submit_compressed_extents()"), if
an async extent compressed but failed to find enough space, we changed
from falling back to an uncompressed write to just failing the write
altogether. The principle was that if there's not enough space to write
the compressed version of the data, there can't possibly be enough space
to write the larger, uncompressed version of the data.

However, this isn't necessarily true: due to fragmentation, there could
be enough discontiguous free blocks to write the uncompressed version,
but not enough contiguous free blocks to write the smaller but
unsplittable compressed version.

This has occurred to an internal workload which relied on write()'s
return value indicating there was space. While rare, it has happened a
few times.

Thus, in order to prevent early ENOSPC, re-add a fallback to
uncompressed writing.
