[PATCH 04/11] xfs: ensure EFD trans aborts on log recovery extent free failure

[Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com>]

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().
