When I found the bug in testing v4.3-rc1, the only error message is "no space",
and there are no way to trigger problem of "losing raid profile type" in
v4.3-rc1, this is why this patch titled "fix no space bug".

Now I need to update title, because your patch is already in integration-4.3,
so in the apply point of this patch, the bug will changed to "losing raid 
profile type"

The space_info->full is direct reason, but not root reason.

"remove all block groups" will cause the file system lost all raidtype 
information,
in this case, we have no way to get raid type again in mount time.
Neither "return no space in write" nor "create single-type chunk" can not help
user to restore filesystem into right state.

Yes, balance operation can also delete all block groups in some case.
It is problem of balance code
