df5e6223407e ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC
conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long
symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However,
the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is
enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well.
Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert:
J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0);
Fix this by increasing the reservation size.
