Shashank A P f846eacde2 fs: quota: create dedicated workqueue for quota_release_work
[ Upstream commit 72b7ceca857f38a8ca7c5629feffc63769638974 ]

There is a kernel panic due to WARN_ONCE when panic_on_warn is set.

This issue occurs when writeback is triggered due to sync call for an
opened file(ie, writeback reason is WB_REASON_SYNC). When f2fs balance
is needed at sync path, flush for quota_release_work is triggered.
By default quota_release_work is queued to "events_unbound" queue which
does not have WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag. During f2fs balance "writeback"
workqueue tries to flush quota_release_work causing kernel panic due to
MEM_RECLAIM flag mismatch errors.

This patch creates dedicated workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag
for work quota_release_work.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
