+Subject: f2fs: quota: fix potential deadlock
+
+From: Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org>
+
+commit a5c0042200b28fff3bde6fa128ddeaef97990f8d upstream.
+
+As Yi Zhuang reported in bugzilla:
+
+https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214299
+
+There is potential deadlock during quota data flush as below:
+
+Thread A: Thread B:
+f2fs_dquot_acquire
+down_read(&sbi->quota_sem)
+ f2fs_write_checkpoint
+ block_operations
+ f2fs_look_all
+ down_write(&sbi->cp_rwsem)
+f2fs_quota_write
+f2fs_write_begin
+__do_map_lock
+f2fs_lock_op
+down_read(&sbi->cp_rwsem)
+ __need_flush_qutoa
+ down_write(&sbi->quota_sem)
+
+This patch changes block_operations() to use trylock, if it fails,
+it means there is potential quota data updater, in this condition,
+let's flush quota data first and then trylock again to check dirty
+status of quota data.
+
+The side effect is: in heavy race condition (e.g. multi quota data
+upaters vs quota data flusher), it may decrease the probability of
+synchronizing quota data successfully in checkpoint() due to limited
+retry time of quota flush.
