If pool has 'no_free_space' set it means a previous allocation already determined the pool has no free space (and failed that allocation with -ENOSPC). By always returning -ENOSPC if 'no_free_space' is set, we do not allow the pool to oscillate between allocating blocks and then not. But a side-effect of this determinism is that if a user wants to be able to allocate new blocks they'll need to reload the pool's table (to clear the 'no_free_space' flag). This reload will happen automatically if the pool's data volume is resized. But if the user takes action to free a lot of space by deleting snapshot volumes, etc the pool will no longer allow data allocations to continue without an intervening table reload.
