ext4: Remove i_mutex use from ext4_quota_write()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
We don't need i_mutex in ext4_quota_write() because writes to quota file
are serialized by dqio_mutex anyway. Changes to quota files outside of quota
code are forbidded and enforced by NOATIME and IMMUTABLE bits.
