The root cause is there is potential deadlock between quota data
update and writeback.

Kworker					Thread B			Thread C
- f2fs_write_cache_pages
 - lock whole cluster	--- A
 - f2fs_write_multi_pages
  - f2fs_write_raw_pages
   - f2fs_write_single_data_page
    - f2fs_do_write_data_page
					- f2fs_setattr
					 - f2fs_lock_op	--- B
									- f2fs_write_checkpoint
									 - block_operations
									  - f2fs_lock_all --- B
					 - dquot_transfer
					  - f2fs_quota_write
					   - f2fs_prepare_compress_overwrite
					    - pagecache_get_page --- A
     - f2fs_trylock_op failed	--- B
  - congestion_wait
  - goto rewrite

To fix this issue, during quota file writeback, just redirty all pages
left in cluster rather holding pages' lock in cluster and looping retrying
lock cp_rwsem.
