Log recovery attempts to free extents with leftover EFIs in the AIL after initial processing. If the extent free fails (e.g., due to unrelated fs corruption), the transaction is cancelled, though it might not be dirtied at the time. If this is the case, the EFD does not abort and thus does not release the EFI. This can lead to hangs as the EFI pins the AIL. Update xlog_recover_process_efi() to log the EFD in the transaction before xfs_free_extent() errors are handled to ensure the transaction is dirty, aborts the EFD and releases the EFI on error. This is consistent with how EFDs are handled at runtime in xfs_bmap_finish().
