xfs: remove "no-allocation" reservations for file creations
If we create a new file we will need an inode, and usually some metadata
in the parent direction. Aiming for everything to go well despite the
lack of a reservation leads to dirty transactions cancelled under a heavy
create/delete load. This patch removes those nospace transactions, which
will lead to slightly earlier ENOSPC on some workloads, but instead
prevent file system shutdowns due to cancelling dirty transactions for
others.
A customer could observe assertations failures and shutdowns due to
cancelation of dirty transactions during heavy NFS workloads as shown
below:
