Your traces are a little different.  The ENOSPC code is throttling
things to make sure you have enough room for the writes you're doing.
The code we have in 3.17-rc3 (or my for-linus branch) are the best
choices right now.  You can pull that down to 3.16 if you want all the
fixes on a more stable kernel.

Nailing down the ENOSPC code is going to be a little different, I think
autodefrag probably isn't interacting well with being short on space and
encryption.  This is leading to much more IO than we'd normally do, and
dm-crypt makes it fairly intensive.

Can you try flipping off autodefrag?
