Subject: btrfs: Fix no_space in write and rm loop

From: Zhao Lei <zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com>

commit e1746e8381cd2af421f75557b5cae3604fc18b35 upstream.

I see no_space in v4.4-rc1 again in xfstests generic/102.
It happened randomly in some node only.
(one of 4 phy-node, and a kvm with non-virtio block driver)

By bisect, we can found the first-bad is:
 commit bdced438acd8 ("block: setup bi_phys_segments after splitting")'
But above patch only triggered the bug by making bio operation
faster(or slower).

Main reason is in our space_allocating code, we need to commit
page writeback before wait it complish, this patch fixed above
bug.

BTW, there is another reason for generic/102 fail, caused by
disable default mixed-blockgroup, I'll fix it in xfstests.
