Btrfs: fill the global reserve when unpinning space
Dave gave me an image of a very full file system that would abort the transaction because it ran out of space while committing the transaction. This is because we would think there was plenty of room to create a snapshot even though the global reserve was not full. This happens because we calculate the global reserve size before we unpin any space, so after we unpin the space we allow reservations to occur even though we haven't reserved all of the space for our global reserve. Fix this by adding to the global reserve while unpinning in order to make sure we always have enough space to do our work. With this patch we no longer end up with an aborted transaction, we return ENOSPC properly to the person trying to create the snapshot.
