  One general note:
  Your mail client has apparently mangled the patch (replaced tabs with
spaces). Please resend patches using git-send-email or some other email
client that doesn't do this so that they can be applied cleanly.

  Some other comments below.

  I don't find CONFIG_QUOTA_PROJECT all that useful. If someone is building
a kernel with CONFIG_QUOTA enabled (i.e., a kernel for a server), he can
well spare those few kilobytes for project quota support and it makes the
code somewhat nicer. So I would just remove this config option.

  I've noticed you are changing interface of several functions from taking
a type number (or -1) to taking a bitmask. I guess it's because of
CONFIG_QUOTA_PROJECT or is there also any other reason? If we get rid of
that config, we won't need this change either, right?

  Hum, actually this isn't so simple. MAXQUOTAS is used in several
filesystems - ext3, ext4, ocfs2, reiserfs, gfs2 - and just bumping up
MAXQUOTAS can have unexpected consequences for them (they won't have
properly initialized data structures for new quota type). So what we have
to do as a preparatory step is to make these filesystems define their own
MAXQUOTAS value (like EXT3_MAXQUOTAS, ...). I'll take care of that.
