ext4: undo ext4_calc_metadata_amount if we fail to claim space The function ext4_calc_metadata_amount() has side effects, although it's not obvious from its function name. So if we fail to claim space, regardless of whether we retry to claim the space again, or return an error, we need to undo these side effects. Otherwise we can end up incorrectly calculating the number of metadata blocks needed for the operation, which was responsible for an xfstests failure for test #271 when using an ext2 file system with delalloc enabled.
