Subject: [PATCH 2/4] ext4: fix reserved space transferring on chown() [V2]

Currently all quota's functions except vfs_dq_reserve_block()
called without i_block_reservation_lock. This result in
ext4_reservation vs quota_reservation inconsistency which provoke
incorrect reservation transfer ==> incorrect quota after transfer.

Race (1)
| Task 1 (chown)                 | Task 2 (truncate)                    |
| dquot_transfer                 |                                      |

| -->dquot_get_reserved_space    | ->lock(i_block_reservation_lock)     |
| --->get_reserved_space         | /* decrement reservation */          |
| ---->ext4_get_reserved_space   | ->unlock(i_block_reservation_lock)   |
| ----->lock(i_block_rsv_lock)   | /* During this time window           |
| /* Read ext4_rsv from inode */ | * fs's reservation not equals        |
| /* transfer it to new quota */ | * to quota's */                      |
| ->up_write(dqptr_sem)          | ->vfs_dq_release_reservation_block() |
|                                | /* quota_rsv goes negative here */   |
|                                |                                      |

Race (2)
| Task 1 (chown)                | Task 2 (flush-8:16)             |
| dquot_transfer()              | ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used()   |
| ->down_write(dqptr_sem)       | ->vfs_dq_claim_block()          |
| --->get_reserved_space()      | /* After this moment         */ |
| --->ext4_get_reserved_space() | /* ext4_rsv != quota_ino_rsv */ |
| /* Read rsv from inode which  |                                 |
| ->dquot_free_reserved_space() |                                 |
| /* quota_rsv goes negative */ |                                 |
|                               |                                 |
|                               | dquot_free_reserved_space()     |
|                               | /* finally dec ext4_ino_rsv */  |

So, in order to protect us from this type of races we always have to
provides ext4_ino_rsv == quot_ino_rsv guarantee. And this is only
possible then i_block_reservation_lock is taken before entering any
quota operations.

In fact i_block_reservation_lock is held by ext4_da_reserve_space()
while calling vfs_dq_reserve_block(). Lock are held in following order
i_block_reservation_lock > dqptr_sem

This may result in deadlock because of different lock ordering:
ext4_da_reserve_space()             dquot_transfer()
lock(i_block_reservation_lock)	     down_write(dqptr_sem)
  down_write(dqptr_sem)		     lock(i_block_reservation_lock)

But this not happen only because both callers must have i_mutex so
serialization happens on i_mutex.

To prevent ext4_reservation vs dquot_reservation inconsistency we
have to make following changes
- Reorganize locking ordering like follows:
  i_block_reservation_lock > dqptr_sem
  This means what all functions which call vfs_dq_XXX must acquire
  i_block_reservation_lock before.

- Move space claiming to ext4_da_update_reserve_space()
  Only here we do know what we are dealing with data or metadata

- Delay dquot_claim for metadata before it until proper moment(
  until we are allowed to decrement inodes->i_reserved_meta_blocks)

The most useful test case for delalloc+quota is concurrent tasks
with write+truncate vs chown for the same file.
