ext4: discard preallocations before releasing group lock
[ Upstream commit 5b3dc19 ] ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations() can be releasing group lock with preallocations accumulated on its local list. Thus although discard_pa_seq was incremented and concurrent allocating processes will be retrying allocations, it can happen that premature ENOSPC error is returned because blocks used for preallocations are not available for reuse yet. Make sure we always free locally accumulated preallocations before releasing group lock.
