ext4: don't allow ext4_free_blocks() to fail due to ENOMEM The filesystem should not be marked inconsistent if ext4_free_blocks() is not able to allocate memory. Unfortunately some callers (most notably ext4_truncate) don't have a way to reflect an error back up to the VFS. And even if we did, most userspace applications won't deal with most system calls returning ENOMEM anyway.
