If xfs_trans_reserve() fails, xfs_setattr_nonsize() does not deallocate
the transaction and does not release "freeze" lock. That leads to the
following warning from lockdep:
  [ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
  ------------------------------------------------
  fs-driver-tests/7127 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
  1 lock held by fs-driver-tests/7127:
   #0:  (sb_internal){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffffa0389a44>] xfs_trans_alloc+0x24/0x40 [xfs]

The patch adds xfs_trans_cancel() on the failure path.

Found by Linux File System Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
