ocfs2: Fix quota locking

OCFS2 had three issues with quota locking:
a) When reading dquot from global quota file, we started a transaction while
   holding dqio_mutex which is prone to deadlocks because other paths do it
   the other way around
b) During ocfs2_sync_dquot we were not protected against concurrent writers
   on the same node. Because we first copy data to local buffer, a race
   could happen resulting in old data being written to global quota file and
   thus causing quota inconsistency after a crash.
c) ip_alloc_sem of quota files was acquired while a transaction is started
   in ocfs2_quota_write which can deadlock because we first get ip_alloc_sem
   and then start a transaction when extending quota files.

We fix the problem a) by pulling all necessary code to ocfs2_acquire_dquot
and ocfs2_release_dquot. Thus we no longer depend on generic dquot_acquire
to do the locking and can force proper lock ordering.

Problems b) and c) are fixed by locking i_mutex and ip_alloc_sem of
global quota file in ocfs2_lock_global_qf and removing ip_alloc_sem from
ocfs2_quota_read and ocfs2_quota_write.

+ * Locking of quotas with OCFS2 is rather complex. Here are rules that
+ * should be obeyed by all the functions:
+ * - any write of quota structure (either to local or global file) is protected
+ *   by dqio_mutex or dquot->dq_lock.
+ * - any modification of global quota file holds inode cluster lock, i_mutex,
+ *   and ip_alloc_sem of the global quota file (achieved by
+ *   ocfs2_lock_global_qf). It also has to hold qinfo_lock.
+ * - an allocation of new blocks for local quota file is protected by
+ *   its ip_alloc_sem
+ *
+ * A rough sketch of locking dependencies (lf = local file, gf = global file):
+ * Normal filesystem operation:
+ *   start_trans -> dqio_mutex -> write to lf
+ * Syncing of local and global file:
+ *   ocfs2_lock_global_qf -> start_trans -> dqio_mutex -> qinfo_lock ->
+ *     write to gf
+ *						       -> write to lf
+ * Acquire dquot for the first time:
+ *   dq_lock -> ocfs2_lock_global_qf -> qinfo_lock -> read from gf
+ *				     -> alloc space for gf
+ *				     -> start_trans -> qinfo_lock -> write to gf
+ *	     -> ip_alloc_sem of lf -> alloc space for lf
+ *	     -> write to lf
+ * Release last reference to dquot:
+ *   dq_lock -> ocfs2_lock_global_qf -> start_trans -> qinfo_lock -> write to gf
+ *	     -> write to lf
+ * Note that all the above operations also hold the inode cluster lock of lf.
+ * Recovery:
+ *   inode cluster lock of recovered lf
+ *     -> read bitmaps -> ip_alloc_sem of lf
+ *     -> ocfs2_lock_global_qf -> start_trans -> dqio_mutex -> qinfo_lock ->
