Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] ext4: fix to detect failure of dquot_initialize in project ioctl

From: Wang Shilong <wshilong@....com>

We return most failure of dquota_initialize() except
inode evict, this could make a bit sense, for example
we allow file removal even quota files are broken?

But it dosen't make sense to allow setting project
if quota files etc are broken.
