Having collapse range fail with ENOSPC is not an issue - it is being executed in a context where we can fail safely and return an error to the user. XFS_TRANS_RESERVE is used in places where a failure is unrecoverable or there is no one to report the error to. e.g. prevent data loss due to ENOSPC in unwritten extent conversion during background buffered write IO completion So here there is no need for it at all....
