Hi,

Thanks for the review. I have now moved it inside xfs_dialloc. 
Along with adding the message, I noticed that the loop 


	while (!agi->agi_freecount) {
	}

is redundant when noroom=1 and okalloc=0.

Also, xfs_ialloc_ag_alloc function in the loop calls  

============
	if (mp->m_maxicount &&
	    mp->m_sb.sb_icount + XFS_IALLOC_INODES(mp) > mp->m_maxicount) {

===============

condition again.

So I have moved xfs_tran_brelse etc. into the condition along 
with message.

Is this logic valid? If it is, then I will look into 
rate-limiting the message etc.
