Everything is waiting on log reservation, the AIL is spinning on the locked quotaoff start log item, and the quotaoff purge sequence appears to be spinning on a dquot. Unfortunately, I can't tell why quotaoff is spinning. stap doesn't seem to compile anything on this box after a quick try, so I'll probably have to reinstall some of the debug code on top and (hopefully) reproduce. I'm guessing it's a similar dquot reference count issue, but it may or may not be the same since this one appears significantly harder to reproduce than the original...
