Syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref Write in xfs_filestream_select_ag.
When pag is not found, xfs_filestream_pick_ag() also returns 0, which leads
to null pointer access in xfs_filestream_create_association().

At the end of xfs_filestream_pick_ag, we need to add a sanity check for pag,
if we fail to grab any AG, we should return to -ENOSPC instead of 0.

If we get here with pag == NULL, then something else has gone
wrong before we got here.

i.e. there's an if (!pag) {} check directly above this, and it can
only fall through to this code if pag != NULL. Hence if pag is NULL
at this point, we should have already hit a null pointer deref
before we got to this point...

So, where's the null pag coming from?
