Subject: probable quota bug introduced in 6.6-rc1

When run on my test hardware, generic/270 triggers hung task timeouts when
run on a 6.6-rc1 (or -rc2, -rc3, -rc4) kernel with kvm-xfstests using the
nojournal test scenario.  The test always passes, but about 60% of the time
the running time of the test increases by an order of magnitude or more and
one or more of the hung task timeout warnings included below can be found in
the log.

This does not reproduce on 6.5.  Bisection leads to this patch:

dabc8b207566 ("quota: fix dqput() to follow the guarantees dquot_srcu should
provide")
