Indirect block reservation underrun on delayed allocation extent merge.
These are extra blocks are used for the inode bmap btree when a delalloc
extent is converted to physical blocks. We're in a case where we expect
to only ever free excess blocks due to a merge of extents with
independent reservations, but a situation occurs where we actually need
blocks and hence the assert fails. This can occur if an extent is merged
with one that has a reservation less than the expected worst case
reservation for its size (due to previous extent splits due to hole
punches, for example). Therefore, I think the core expectation that
xfs_bmap_add_extent_hole_delay() will always have enough blocks
pre-reserved is invalid.

Can you describe the workload that reproduces this? FWIW, I think the
way xfs_bmap_add_extent_hole_delay() currently works is likely broken
and have a couple patches to fix up indlen reservation that I haven't
posted yet. The diff that deals with this particular bit is appended.
Care to give that a try?
