Subject: [ 61/89] reiserfs: Fix lock ordering during remount

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

commit 3bb3e1fc47aca554e7e2cc4deeddc24750987ac2 upstream.

When remounting reiserfs dquot_suspend() or dquot_resume() can be called.
These functions take dqonoff_mutex which ranks above write lock so we have
to drop it before calling into quota code.
