From 0b7f7cefaea96ef25dbe54b8e16d2d61560d8b9d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2012 21:26:54 +0200 Subject: ext4: Remove i_mutex use from ext4_quota_write() 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.
