v2: Add the xfs_buf_lock to xfs_quiesce_attr().
Add explaination why xfs_buf_lock() is used to wait for write.
xfs_wait_buftarg() does not wait for the completion of the write of the
uncached superblock. This write can race with the shutdown of the log and
causes a panic if the write does not win the race.
During the log write, xfsaild_push() will lock the buffer and set the
XBF_ASYNC flag. Because the XBF_FLAG is set, complete() is not performed
on the buffer's iowait entry, we cannot call xfs_buf_iowait() to wait for
the write to complete. The buffer's lock is held until the write is complete,
so we can block on a xfs_buf_lock() request to be notified that the write
is complete.
