circular locking dependency found in QUOTA OFF
i_mutex on quota files is special. Unlike i_mutexes for other inodes it is
acquired under dqonoff_mutex. Tell lockdep about this lock ranking. Also
comment and code in quota_sync_sb() seem to be bogus (as i_mutex for quota
file can be acquired under dqonoff_mutex). Move truncate_inode_pages()
call under dqonoff_mutex and save some problems with races...
