quota: improve inode list scanning in add_dquot_ref()

We restarted scan of sb->s_inodes list whenever we had to drop inode_lock
in add_dquot_ref().  This leads to overall quadratic running time and thus
add_dquot_ref() can take several minutes when called on a life filesystem.
We fix the problem by using the fact that inode cannot be removed from
s_inodes list while we hold a reference to it and thus we can safely
restart the scan if we don't drop the reference.  Here we use the fact that
inodes freshly added to s_inodes list are already guaranteed to have quotas
properly initialized and the ordering of inodes on s_inodes list does not
change so we cannot skip any inode.

Thanks goes to Nick <gentuu@gmail.com> for analyzing the problem and
testing the fix.
