    reiserfs: locking, release lock around quota operations · d2d0395f
    Jeff Mahoney authored
    Previous commits released the write lock across quota operations but
    missed several places.  In particular, the free operations can also
    call into the file system code and take the write lock, causing
    deadlocks.
    
    This patch introduces some more helpers and uses them for quota call
    sites.  Without this patch applied, reiserfs + quotas runs into deadlocks
    under anything more than trivial load.
