xfs: don't trip over negative free space in xfs_reserve_blocks

If we somehow end up with a filesystem that has fewer free blocks than
the blocks set aside to avoid ENOSPC deadlocks, it's possible that the
free space calculation in xfs_reserve_blocks will spit out a negative
number (because percpu_counter_sum returns s64).  We fail to notice
this negative number and set fdblks_delta to it.  Now we increment
fdblocks(!) and the unsigned type of m_resblks means that we end up
setting a ridiculously huge m_resblks reservation.

Avoid this comedy of errors by detecting the negative free space and
returning -ENOSPC.
