circular locking dependency found in QUOTA OFF

i_mutex on quota files is special.  Unlike i_mutexes for other inodes it is
acquired under dqonoff_mutex.  Tell lockdep about this lock ranking.  Also
comment and code in quota_sync_sb() seem to be bogus (as i_mutex for quota
file can be acquired under dqonoff_mutex).  Move truncate_inode_pages()
call under dqonoff_mutex and save some problems with races...
