  Hmm, cannot we automatically enable 'usrquota' and 'grpquota' options
when we see QUOTA feature enabled? Quota tools still need these options to
identify a filesystem they can work with (although another option would be
to change quota tools to use GETFMT with ext4 filesystem to identify
whether quotas are enabled or not).

  Both xfs and ocfs2 allow for mode in which usage is tracked (i.e. quota
information is kept uptodate) but limits are not enforced. I imagine this
might be useful in some cases and also from consistency point of view it
would be nice.

In ocfs2 I implemented it so that on mount, updating of quota information
is enabled (when appropriate fs feature is enabled) but limits are not
enforced. Quotaon/quotaoff commands then toggle enforcement of quota
limits. XFS has mount options which decide whether quota information should
be kept uptodate and whether it should be enforced or not.

  I think it might be useful in some cases to enable only user quotas but
leave group quotas disabled (it slightly reduces quota overhead - mainly
because we have less quota structures to update on disk). So it would be
useful to have USRQUOTA and GRPQUOTA features separate...
