Subject: xfs: fix up quotacheck buffer list error handling

From: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com>

commit 20e8a063786050083fe05b4f45be338c60b49126 upstream.

The quotacheck error handling of the delwri buffer list assumes the
resident buffers are locked and doesn't clear the _XBF_DELWRI_Q flag
on the buffers that are dequeued. This can lead to assert failures
on buffer release and possibly other locking problems.

Move this code to a delwri queue cancel helper function to
encapsulate the logic required to properly release buffers from a
delwri queue. Update the helper to clear the delwri queue flag and
call it from quotacheck.
