Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: only check dquot_initialize_needed() when debugging
ext4_xattr_block_set() relies on its caller to call dquot_initialize()
on the inode. To assure that this has happened there are WARN_ON
checks. Unfortunately, this is subject to false positives if there is
an antagonist thread which is flipping the file system at high rates
between r/o and rw. So only do the check if EXT4_XATTR_DEBUG is
enabled.
