Series quota: fix race condition between dqput() and dquot_mark_dquot_dirty() | expand

Now when dqput() drops the last reference count, it will call
synchronize_srcu(&dquot_srcu) in quota_release_workfn() to ensure that
no other user will use the dquot after the last reference count is dropped,
so we don't need to call synchronize_srcu(&dquot_srcu) in drop_dquot_ref()
and remove the corresponding logic directly to simplify the code.

Nice simplification!  It is also important that dqput() now cannot sleep
which was another reason for the logic with tofree_head in
remove_inode_dquot_ref(). Probably this is good to mention in the
changelog.

I think you can also just drop remove_inode_dquot_ref() as it is trivial
now and inline it at its only callsite...

I don't understand this sentence very well, so I would appreciate it

if you could explain it in detail.
