  Hi Alan,

  I'm sending you a patch which fixes a deadlock when quota is used on
ext3. There is lock inversion on dqio_sem and journal_start/stop. The
patch introduces needed framework for ext3 to start transaction before
dqio_sem is acquired. Please apply.

                                                        Bye
