[PATCH 6.6 090/105] fs: quota: create dedicated workqueue for quota_release_work

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Shashank A P <shashank.ap@samsung.com>

[ Upstream commit 72b7ceca857f38a8ca7c5629feffc63769638974 ]

There is a kernel panic due to WARN_ONCE when panic_on_warn is set.

This issue occurs when writeback is triggered due to sync call for an
opened file(ie, writeback reason is WB_REASON_SYNC). When f2fs balance
is needed at sync path, flush for quota_release_work is triggered.
By default quota_release_work is queued to "events_unbound" queue which
does not have WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag. During f2fs balance "writeback"
workqueue tries to flush quota_release_work causing kernel panic due to
MEM_RECLAIM flag mismatch errors.

This patch creates dedicated workqueue with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag
for work quota_release_work.
