Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: fix race between quota rescan and disable leading to
 NULL pointer deref
Git-commit: b7adbf9ada3513d2092362c8eac5cddc5b651f5c
Patch-mainline: v6.2-rc5
References: bsc#1207158

If we have one task trying to start the quota rescan worker while another
one is trying to disable quotas, we can end up hitting a race that results
in the quota rescan worker doing a NULL pointer dereference. The steps for
this are the following:

1) Quotas are enabled;

2) Task A calls the quota rescan ioctl and enters btrfs_qgroup_rescan().
   It calls qgroup_rescan_init() which returns 0 (success) and then joins a
   transaction and commits it;

3) Task B calls the quota disable ioctl and enters btrfs_quota_disable().
   It clears the bit BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED from fs_info->flags and calls
   btrfs_qgroup_wait_for_completion(), which returns immediately since the
   rescan worker is not yet running.
   Then it starts a transaction and locks fs_info->qgroup_ioctl_lock;

4) Task A queues the rescan worker, by calling btrfs_queue_work();

5) The rescan worker starts, and calls rescan_should_stop() at the start
   of its while loop, which results in 0 iterations of the loop, since
   the flag BTRFS_FS_QUOTA_ENABLED was cleared from fs_info->flags by
   task B at step 3);

6) Task B sets fs_info->quota_root to NULL;

7) The rescan worker tries to start a transaction and uses
   fs_info->quota_root as the root argument for btrfs_start_transaction().
   This results in a NULL pointer dereference down the call chain of
   btrfs_start_transaction(). The stack trace is something like the one
   reported in Link tag below:

So fix this by having the rescan worker function not attempt to start a
transaction if it didn't do any rescan work.
