Arjan van de Ven 5c81a4197d [PATCH] lockdep: annotate the quota code
The quota code plays interesting games with the lock ordering; to quote Jan:

| i_mutex of inode containing quota file is acquired after all other
| quota locks. i_mutex of all other inodes is acquired before quota
| locks. Quota code makes sure (by resetting inode operations and
| setting special flag on inode) that noone tries to enter quota code
| while holding i_mutex on a quota file...

The good news is that all of this special case i_mutex grabbing happens in the
(per filesystem) low level quota write function.  For this special case we
need a new I_MUTEX_* nesting level, since this just entirely outside any of
the regular VFS locking rules for i_mutex.  I trust Jan on his blue eyes that
this is not ever going to deadlock; and based on that the patch below is what
it takes to inform lockdep of these very interesting new locking rules.

The new locking rule for the I_MUTEX_QUOTA nesting level is that this is the
deepest possible level of nesting for i_mutex, and that this only should be
used in quota write (and possibly read) function of filesystems.  This makes
the lock ordering of the I_MUTEX_* levels:

I_MUTEX_PARENT -> I_MUTEX_CHILD -> I_MUTEX_NORMAL -> I_MUTEX_QUOTA

Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.
