Currently the way we do data reservations is by seeing if we have enough space in our space_info. If we do not and we're a normal inode we'll 1) Attempt to force a chunk allocation until we can't anymore. 2) If that fails we'll flush delalloc, then commit the transaction, then run the delayed iputs. If we are a free space inode we're only allowed to force a chunk allocation. In order to use the normal flushing mechanism we need to encode this into a flush state array for normal inodes. Since both will start with allocating chunks until the space info is full there is no need to add this as a flush state, this will be handled specially.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
