Javier Barrio 41c4f85cda quota: Lock s_umount in exclusive mode for Q_XQUOTA{ON,OFF} quotactls.
Commit 1fa5efe362 (ext4: Use generic helpers for quotaon
and quotaoff) made possible to call quotactl(Q_XQUOTAON/OFF) on ext4 filesystems
with sysfile quota support. This leads to calling dquot_enable/disable without s_umount
held in excl. mode, because quotactl_cmd_onoff checks only for Q_QUOTAON/OFF.

The following WARN_ON_ONCE triggers (in this case for dquot_enable, ext4, latest Linus' tree):

[  117.807056] EXT4-fs (dm-0): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: quota,prjquota

and then the syscall proceeds without s_umount locking.

This patch locks the superblock ->s_umount sem. in exclusive mode for all Q_XQUOTAON/OFF
quotactls too in addition to Q_QUOTAON/OFF.

AFAICT, other than ext4, only xfs and ocfs2 are affected by this change.
The VFS will now call in xfs_quota_* functions with s_umount held, which wasn't the case
before. This looks good to me but I can not say for sure. Ext4 and ocfs2 where already
beeing called with s_umount exclusive via quota_quotaon/off which is basically the same.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
