However, this function has only checked that there is enough contiguous free space for an aligned args->minlen allocation to succeed. Hence there is no guarantee that an args->maxlen allocation will succeed, nor that the available space will allow for correct alignment of an args->maxlen allocation. Further, by trimming args->maxlen arbitrarily, it breaks an assumption made in xfs_alloc_fix_len() that if the caller wants aligned allocation, then args->maxlen will be set to an aligned value. It then skips the tail alignment and so we end up with extents that aren't aligned to extent size hint boundaries as we approach ENOSPC. To avoid this problem, don't reduce args->maxlen by some random, arbitrary amount. If args->maxlen is too large for the available space, reduce the allocation to a minlen allocation as we know we have contiguous free space available for this to succeed and always be correctly aligned.
