This percpu counter @total_bytes_pinned is introduced to skip unnecessary
operations of 'commit transaction', it accounts for those space we may free
but are stuck in delayed refs.

And we zero out @space_info->total_bytes_pinned every transaction period so
we have a better idea of how much space we'll actually free up by committing
this transaction.  However, we do the 'zero out' part a little earlier, before
we actually unpin space, so we end up returning ENOSPC when we actually have
free space that's just unpinned from committing transaction.

xfstests/generic/074 complained then.

This fixes it by zeroing out the percpu pinned number after 'unpin' and when
finding space for writing, if it finds that pinned bytes is less than needed,
we first try again to check if we have space now, as someone may have
committed transaction, yes means we're good, while no means we really have
run out of space.

This function is called after the transaction is unblocked, that is the new transaction can
be started and some new pinned extents have been accounted into this counter, so we can not
set to 0 directly.

There are several way to avoid the above problem, one is account the pinned space we free
in btrfs_finish_extent_commit then subtract from the counter. The other is introduce a new counter,
and we use those two counter alternately just like freed_extents variant in btrfs_fs_info structure.

Thanks

Make sense, thanks for reviewing it.

I'd like to take the first one.
