Re: [f2fs-dev] [PATCH v3] f2fs: add a rw_sem to cover quota flag changes

[Jaegeuk Kim]

Two paths to update quota and f2fs_lock_op:

1.
 - lock_op
 |  - quota_update
 `- unlock_op

2.
 - quota_update
 - lock_op
 `- unlock_op

But, we need to make a transaction on quota_update + lock_op in #2 case.
So, this patch introduces:
1. lock_op
2. down_write
3. check __need_flush
4. up_write
5. if there is dirty quota entries, flush them
6. otherwise, good to go

v3 from v2:
 - refactor to fix quota corruption issue
  : it seems that the previous scenario is not real and no deadlock case was
    encountered.
