Subject: [PATCH] reiserfs: Fix synchronization of quota files in journal=data mode

In journal=data mode, it is not enough to do write_inode_now() as done in
vfs_quota_on() to write all data to their final location (which is needed for
quota_read to work correctly). Calling journal_end_sync() before calling
vfs_quota_on() does it's job because transactions are committed to the journal
and data marked as dirty in memory so write_inode_now() writes them to their
final locations.
