xfs: nest qm_dqfrlist_lock inside the dquot qlock
Allow xfs_qm_dqput to work without trylock loops by nesting the freelist lock inside the dquot qlock. In turn that requires trylocks in the reclaim path instead, but given it's a classic tradeoff between fast and slow path, and we follow the model of the inode and dentry caches. Document our new lock order now that it has settled. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Myers <bpm@sgi.com>
