Hi,

for me a work-around for something like this has been to reduce the
amount of dirty memory via e.g.

sysctl vm.dirty_background_bytes=$((100*1024*1024))
sysctl vm.dirty_bytes=$((400*1024*1024))

this reduces performance, however. You could also mount with
"enospc_debug" to give the devs more infos about this issue.
I am having more ENOSPC issues with 4.9.x than with the latest 4.14.

Regards,
Martin
