btrfs: qgroup: don't try to wait flushing if we're already holding a transaction
There is a chance of racing for qgroup flushing which may lead to
deadlock:
Thread A | Thread B
(not holding trans handle) | (holding a trans handle)
--------------------------------+--------------------------------
__btrfs_qgroup_reserve_meta() | __btrfs_qgroup_reserve_meta()
|- try_flush_qgroup() | |- try_flush_qgroup()
|- QGROUP_FLUSHING bit set | |
| | |- test_and_set_bit()
| | |- wait_event()
|- btrfs_join_transaction() |
|- btrfs_commit_transaction()|
!!! DEAD LOCK !!!
Since thread A wants to commit transaction, but thread B is holding a
transaction handle, blocking the commit.
At the same time, thread B is waiting for thread A to finish its commit.
This is just a hot fix, and would lead to more EDQUOT when we're near
the qgroup limit.
The proper fix would be to make all metadata/data reservations happen
without holding a transaction handle.
