I explained this last time syzbot triggered this: this is a syzbot
configuration problem, not a filesystem bug.

.....
And so it goes until something tries to freeze the filesystem and
gets stuck waiting for writeback of metadata that is not making
progress because XFS defaults to -retry metadata write errors
forever- until the filesystem is shut down.
If the user expects an XFS filesystem to fail fast when they
accidentally shrink the block device under a mounted filesytem, then
they need to configure XFS to fail metadata IO fast. Otherwise
metadata will remain dirty and be retried until the filesystem is
shut down or the error behaviour is reconfigured.
Please fix your syzbot configurations and/or tests that screw with
the block device under filesystems to configure XFS filesystems to
fail fast so that these tests no longer generate unwanted noise.
