Drop the cast if possible. do_div returns an integer.

Add a space, to go in line with the other casts.

This looks like it involves a lot of booleans. I'd prefer
bh != NULL && !IS_ERR(bh) && *dblock != 0 && *new != 0
to make it clear pointers and integers are involved.

These casts can probably go also away, if b_data is a void* and sd_diptrs is an
integer.

Should not these go into a .c file instead?

Nothing major, I noticed an empty line at the end of function.

How about inverting the if() to:
if(ip == NULL)
return;
if(test_bit(GLF_DIRTY, &gl->gl_flags))
gfs_inode_attr_in(ip);
gfs2_meta_cache_flush(ip);

I suggest
struct whateverneededhere *di = &ip->i_di;
di->di_mode = inode->i_mode;

If the quota is not going to change, is the call needed?

Correct from a math POV, in computing, it's "==" :-)

IMO, try not to remove const'ness by casting. If [members of] gh_a were
intended to be writable, make glock_compare_atime take (void *, void *)
instead.

You can do an "early return",
function() {
if(a->ln_number > b->ln_number)
return 1;
else if(a->ln_number < b->ln_number)
return -1;
if(gh_a->gh_state == LM_ST_SHARED && gh_b->gh_state == LM_ST_EXCLUSIVE)
return 1;
if(gh_a->gh_state == LM_ST_SHARED && (gh_b->gh_flags & GL_ATIME))
return 1;
return 0;
}
The two nice side effects of early-return and if-inversion (see above) are that
indentation is reduced (CodingStyle: "The answer to that is that if you need
more than 3 levels of indentation, you're screwed anyway, and should fix your
program.")
and one can follow the possible flows more easily (to take CS wording "A human
brain can generally easily keep track of about 7 different things, anything
more and it gets confused.") because some conditions are evicted early.

I prefer to have function prototypes above any static inlines, in case a
static-inline function uses one of these functions. Do it as you find best.
So far I have seen more extern than static functions. Please make any functions
that are not used across two or more files static too if that has not already
been done.
