Hi all,

Here's a proper v1 of the quotaoff logging rework. Changes from the RFC
are fairly straightforward and listed below. The one outstanding bit of
feedback from the RFC is the lock / memory ordering question around the
quota flags update. My understanding is that the percpu rwsem provides
the required consistency through a combination of explicit memory
barriers and RCU, so I opted to drop the unnecessary wrapper functions
to make the locking more clear (along with comment updates) and also
eliminate freeze/unfreeze naming confusion.

Thoughts, reviews, flames appreciated.

Brian

v1:
- Replace patch 2 with a proper internal quiesce mechanism.
- Remove unnecessary freeze/unfreeze helpers.
- Relocate quotaoff end transaction to commit inside quiesce window. 
- Clean up comments and document new algorithm.
