This patch causes generic/522 to consistently fail when using the following
fstest configuration,

TEST_DEV=/dev/loop16
TEST_LOGDEV=/dev/loop13
SCRATCH_DEV_POOL="/dev/loop5 /dev/loop6 /dev/loop7 /dev/loop8 /dev/loop9 /dev/loop10 /dev/loop11 /dev/loop12"
MKFS_OPTIONS='-f -m reflink=1,rmapbt=1, -i sparse=1, -lsize=1g'
MOUNT_OPTIONS='-o usrquota,grpquota,prjquota'
TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS="$TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS -o usrquota,grpquota,prjquota"
TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS="-o logdev=/dev/loop13"
SCRATCH_LOGDEV=/dev/loop15
USE_EXTERNAL=yes
LOGWRITES_DEV=/dev/loop15
