We inform lockdep about it when turning on quotas however when turning quotas off, we don't clear the lockdep subclass from i_data_sem lock and thus when the inode gets later reused for a normal file or directory, lockdep gets confused and complains about possible deadlocks. Fix the problem by resetting lockdep subclass of i_data_sem on quota off.
