The wording of this paragraph makes it a bit hard to understand. How
about something like:

Consider an example where a request is allowed to overcommit
space_info->total_bytes + 2mib. At this point it's no longer possible to
overcommit extra space. At the same time there is an existing 3mib
reservation which is being freed. Due to the existing check failing:

if (check_overcommit &&
  !can_overcommit(fs_info, space_info, 0, flush, false))

btrfs_space_info_add_old_bytes won't partially refill tickets with those
3mib, instead it will subtract them from space_info->bytes_may_use. This
results in the total reserved space being 1mib below
space_info->total_bytes. <You need to expand on where the 2mib ticket
came - was it part of the original reservation that caused the
overcommit or is it a new reservation that comes while we are at 1mb
below space_info->total_bytes>
