This is not a regression; the changes in this particular release will
not cause this behaviour.  The underlying issue is that the test fills
the lower btrfs file system to a point where we run out of free space
when searching for a free extent; see find_free_extent().   This error
occurs when a chunk alloc fails.  btrfs seems to handle these -ENOSPC
errors poorly for some reason.

I think we can safely say that this is not an eCryptfs regression, but
an existing bug in btrfs.
