xfs: account for the refcount btree in the alloc/free log reservation
Every time we allocate or free a data extent, we might need to split
the refcount btree. Reserve some blocks in the transaction to handle
this possibility. Even though the deferred refcount code can roll a
transaction to avoid overloading the transaction, we can still exceed
the reservation.
Certain pathological workloads (1k blocks, no cowextsize hint, random
directio writes), cause a perfect storm wherein a refcount adjustment
of a large range of blocks causes full tree splits in two separate
extents in two separate refcount tree blocks; allocating new refcount
tree blocks causes rmap btree splits; and all the allocation activity
causes the freespace btrees to split, blowing the reservation.
