ext4: prevent ext4_quota_write() from failing due to ENOSPC
In order to prevent quota block tracking to be inaccurate when
ext4_quota_write() fails with ENOSPC, we make two changes. The quota
file can now use the reserved block (since the quota file is arguably
file system metadata), and ext4_quota_write() now uses
ext4_should_retry_alloc() to retry the block allocation after a commit
has completed and released some blocks for allocation.
This fixes failures of xfstests generic/270:
Quota error (device vdc): write_blk: dquota write failed
Quota error (device vdc): qtree_write_dquot: Error -28 occurred while creating quota
