xfs: inactivate inodes any time we try to free speculative preallocations
Other parts of XFS have learned to call xfs_blockgc_free_{space,quota} to try to free speculative preallocations when space is tight. This means that file writes, transaction reservation failures, quota limit enforcement, and the EOFBLOCKS ioctl all call this function to free space when things are tight. Since inode inactivation is now a background task, this means that the filesystem can be hanging on to unlinked but not yet freed space. Add this to the list of things that xfs_blockgc_free_* makes writer threads scan for when they cannot reserve space. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
