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.
