[ Upstream commit 7bce48f0fec602b3b6c335963b26d9eefa417788 ]
As Honza said, remove_inode_dquot_ref() currently does not release the
last dquot reference but instead adds the dquot to tofree_head list. This
is because dqput() can sleep while dropping of the last dquot reference
(writing back the dquot and calling ->release_dquot()) and that must not
happen under dq_list_lock. Now that dqput() queues the final dquot cleanup
into a workqueue, remove_inode_dquot_ref() can call dqput() unconditionally
and we can significantly simplify it.
Here we open code the simplified code of remove_inode_dquot_ref() into
remove_dquot_ref() and remove the function put_dquot_list() which is no
longer used.

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.
