    GFS2: quota allows exceeding hard limit · 662e3a55

    Immediately after being synced to disk, cached quotas are zeroed out and a
    subsequent access of the cached quotas results in incorrect zero values. This
    meant that gfs2 assumed the actual usage to be the zero (or near-zero) usage
    values it found in the cached quotas and comparison against warn/limits never
    triggered a quota violation.
    
    This patch adds a new flag QDF_REFRESH that is set after a sync so that the
    cached quotas are forcefully refreshed from disk on a subsequent access on
    seeing this flag set.
