Indeed. It looks like I botched the need_iolock parameter to
xfs_free_eofblocks() when I migrated to rely on EAGAIN rather than a
blocking lock. Thanks for the report.

I'm surprised I didn't reproduce this. I will try and do so before I
submit an updated set so I can verify a fix. Was this a repeated 133
test or full xfstests run? Thanks again.
