If freesp == 0, we could end up in an infinite loop while squashing the preallocation. Break the loop when we've killed the prealloc entirely. Signed-off-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi all, Mark caught this while reviewing the quota throttling patchset. I figured it better that my set depend on this rather than vice versa, so I'll plan on a v5 for at least a rebase, but I'll wait a bit for further comments on v4.
