xfs: truncate delalloc extents when IO fails in writeback
We currently use block_invalidatepage() to clean up pages where I/O
fails in ->writepage(). Unfortunately, if the page has delalloc
regions on it, we fail to remove the delalloc regions when we
invalidate the page. This can result in tripping a BUG() in
xfs_get_blocks() later on if a direct IO read is done on that same
region - the delalloc extent is returned when none is supposed to be
there.
Fix this by truncating away the delalloc regions on the page before
invalidating it. Because they are delalloc, we can do this without
needing a transaction. Indeed - if we get ENOSPC errors, we have to
be able to do this truncation without a transaction as there is
no space left for block reservation (typically why we see a ENOSPC
in writeback).
