Btrfs: introduce a mutex lock for btrfs quota operations
The original code has one spin_lock 'qgroup_lock' to protect quota
configurations in memory. If we want to add a BTRFS_QGROUP_INFO_KEY,
it will be added to Btree firstly, and then update configurations in
memory,however, a race condition may happen between these operations.
For example:
->add_qgroup_info_item()
->add_qgroup_rb()
For the above case, del_qgroup_info_item() may happen just before
add_qgroup_rb().
What's worse, when we want to add a qgroup relation:
->add_qgroup_relation_item()
->add_qgroup_relations()
We don't have any checks whether 'src' and 'dst' exist before
add_qgroup_relation_item(), a race condition can also happen for
the above case.
To avoid race condition and have all the necessary checks, we introduce
a mutex lock 'qgroup_ioctl_lock', and we make all the user change operations
protected by the mutex lock.
