Makes sense.

The xfs_trans_reserve() call still reserves XFS_DIOSTRAT_SPACE_RES()
blocks, so therefore I think ENOSPC is still a possibility. The question
is probably whether or not we need to reserve blocks for this
transaction.

Making a pass through the code... we have the possibility of deleting a
btree record in xfs_bmap_shift_extents(). This in turn could potentially
free a btree block, which frees space. I _think_ this could mean we
want to keep the block reservation because we update the free space
trees, but I suppose that could be handled by the freelist...

Perhaps Dave can confirm which direction we should go here..?
