As Al Viro pointed out path resolution during Q_QUOTAON calls to quotactl is prone to deadlocks. We hold s_umount semaphore for reading during the path resolution and resolution itself may need to acquire the semaphore for writing when e. g. autofs mountpoint is passed. Solve the problem by performing the resolution before we get hold of the superblock (and thus s_umount semaphore). The whole thing is complicated by the fact that some filesystems (OCFS2) ignore the path argument. So to distinguish between filesystem which want the path and which do not we introduce new .quota_on_meta callback which does not get the path. OCFS2 then uses this callback instead of old .quota_on.
