[PATCH 19/19] XFS: set PF_FSTRANS while ilock is held in xfs_free_eofblocks

[NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>]

memory allocates can happen while the xfs ilock is held in
xfs_free_eofblocks, particularly

  [<ffffffff813e6667>] kmem_zone_alloc+0x67/0xc0
  [<ffffffff813e5945>] xfs_trans_add_item+0x25/0x50
  [<ffffffff8143d64c>] xfs_trans_ijoin+0x2c/0x60
  [<ffffffff8142275e>] xfs_itruncate_extents+0xbe/0x400
  [<ffffffff813c72f4>] xfs_free_eofblocks+0x1c4/0x240

So set PF_FSTRANS to avoid this causing a deadlock.

Care is needed here as xfs_trans_reserve() also sets PF_FSTRANS, while
xfs_trans_cancel and xfs_trans_commit will clear it.
So our extra setting must fully nest these calls.
