xfs: fix mmap_sem/iolock inversion in xfs_free_eofblocks
When xfs_free_eofblocks is called from ->release the VM might already hold the mmap_sem, but in the write path we take the iolock before taking the mmap_sem in the generic write code. Switch xfs_free_eofblocks to only trylock the iolock if called from ->release and skip trimming the prellocated blocks in that case. We'll still free them later on the final iput.
