Currently, __dquot_transfer() acquires its own references of dquot structures
that will be put into inode. But for OCFS2, this creates a lock inversion
between dq_lock (waited on in dqget) and transaction start (started in
ocfs2_setattr). Currently, deadlock is impossible because dq_lock is acquired
only during dquot_acquire and dquot_release and we already hold a reference to
dquot structures in ocfs2_setattr so neither of these functions can be called
while we call dquot_transfer. But this is rather subtle and it is hard to teach
lockdep about it. So provide __dquot_transfer function that can be passed dquot
references directly. OCFS2 can then pass acquired dquot references directly to
__dquot_transfer with proper locking.
