With commit 1b98450816 ("Btrfs: fix find_free_dev_extent() malfunction
in case device tree has hole") introduced in the kernel 4.1 merge window,
we end up using part of a device hole for which there are already pending
chunks or pinned chunks. Before that commit we didn't use the hole and
would just move on to the next hole in the device.
However when we adjust the start offset for the chunk allocation and we
have pinned chunks, we set it blindly to the end offset of the pinned
chunk we are currently processing, which is dangerous because we can
have a pending chunk that has a start offset that matches the end offset
of our pinned chunk - leading us to a case where we end up getting two
pending chunks that start at the same physical device offset, which makes
us later abort the current transaction with -EEXIST when finishing the
chunk allocation at btrfs_create_pending_block_groups():

[194737.718170] BTRFS: error (device sdc) in btrfs_create_pending_block_groups:9524: errno=-17 Object already exists
The -EEXIST failure comes from btrfs_finish_chunk_alloc(), called by
btrfs_create_pending_block_groups(), when it attempts to insert a
duplicated device extent item via btrfs_alloc_dev_extent().
This issue was reproducible with fstests generic/038 running in a loop for
several hours (it's very hard to hit) and using MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o discard".
Applying Jeff's recent patch titled "btrfs: add missing discards when
unpinning extents with -o discard" makes the issue much easier to reproduce
(usually within 4 to 5 hours), since it pins chunks for longer periods of
time when an unused block group is deleted by the cleaner kthread.
Fix this by making sure that we never adjust the start offset to a lower
value than it currently has.
