 * This function is called when an operation cannot be budgeted because there

 *   o budgeting is pessimistic, so it always budgets more than it is actually
 *     needed, so shrinking the liability is one way to make free space - the
 *     cached data will take less space then it was budgeted for;
 *   o GC may turn some dark space into free space (budgeting treats dark space
 *     as not available);
 *   o commit may free some LEB, i.e., turn freeable LEBs into free LEBs.
 *
 * So this function tries to do the above. Returns %-EAGAIN if some free space
 * was presumably made and the caller has to re-try budgeting the operation.
 * Returns %-ENOSPC if it couldn't do more free space, and other negative error
 * codes on failures.
