[PATCH 4.9 18/72] xfs: dont fail xfs_extent_busy allocation

4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx>

commit 5e30c23d13919a718b22d4921dc5c0accc59da27 upstream.

We don't just need the structure to track busy extents which can be
avoided with a synchronous transaction, but also to keep track of
pending discard.
