Jan Kara 7b9ca4c61b quota: Reduce contention on dq_data_lock
dq_data_lock is currently used to protect all modifications of quota
accounting information, consistency of quota accounting on the inode,
and dquot pointers from inode. As a result contention on the lock can be
pretty heavy.

Reduce the contention on the lock by protecting quota accounting
information by a new dquot->dq_dqb_lock and consistency of quota
accounting with inode usage by inode->i_lock.

This change reduces time to create 500000 files on ext4 on ramdisk by 50
different processes in separate directories by 6% when user quota is
turned on. When those 50 processes belong to 50 different users, the
improvement is about 9%.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
