The quotaoff operation commits two explicitly synchronous
transactions to correctly handle log recovery of dquots being
modified at the time the quotaoff occurs. The first quotaoff
transaction pins the tail of the log with a qoff logitem in the AIL
to ensure further logged dquots stay ahead of the quotaoff operation
in the log. The second quotaoff_end transaction is committed after
the quotaoff operation completes, releases the original log item and
thus unpins the log.

Since the first transaction pins the tail of the log, this means a
finite amount of space in the log is available between the time a
quotaoff starts and completes before transaction reservations have
to block on the log. While the quotaoff operation itself consumes no
further log space, it is possible for other operations in the
filesystem to consume the remaining log space before the quotaoff
completes. If this occurs, the quotaoff_end transaction also blocks
on the log which prevents the release of the log item and the
filesystem deadlocks. This has been reproduced via repeated xfs/305
iterations on a vm with fairly limited resources.

To avoid a deadlock due to a particularly slow quotaoff operation,
allocate the quotaoff_end transaction immediately after the initial
quotaoff transaction is committed. Carry a reference to the
transaction through xfs_qm_scall_quotaoff() rather than the qoff log
item and commit it once the quotaoff completes.

Hmm... so instead of holding a pinned log item for however long it takes
to finish quotaoff, we instead hold a transaction.  That does fix the
problem where we pin the log tail and the head crashes into it, but also
comes with its own problems, doesn't it?

In xfs_qm_scall_quotaoff, we call xfs_qm_dqrele_all_inodes, which
calls xfs_dqrele_inode to call xfs_qm_dqrele on all the inodes in the
system.  However, if any of those inodes are unlinked and inactive, the
iput -> xfs_fs_destroy_inode -> xfs_inactive path truncates the inode,
which itself requires a transaction, so now we're running with nested
transactions.

I'm not sure that's necessarily a problem because the outer transaction
contains only a single qoffend item.  AFAICT I haven't encountered any
other places in XFS where a single thread runs nested transactions, but
it still seems suspect to me.

Heh, lockdep just spat this at me:

Yeah, good spot. I wasn't expecting to be logging anything else in this
window of time, but it looks like that is possible. We definitely don't
want to be doing nested transactions. I'll have to think about this one
some more.

Note that this was a one off fix for something I reproduced when trying
to reproduce the livelock addressed by the subsequent patches in the
series. It's not a dependency for the subsequent 3 patches.

I'm guessing I just didn't have lockdep enabled when I tested this. To
be sure... what is the reproducer for this? Thanks.
