Clear PF_FSTRANS over spl_filp_fallocate()

The problem described in 2a5d574 also applies to XFS's file or inode
fallocate method.  Both paths may trigger writeback and expose this
issue, see the full stack below.

When layered on XFS a warning will be emitted under CentOS7 when entering
either the file or inode fallocate method with PF_FSTRANS already set.
To avoid triggering this error PF_FSTRANS is cleared and then reset
in vn_space().
