Subject: [PATCH 4.5 093/128] ext4: fix check of dqget() return value in ext4_ioctl_setproject()

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Seth Forshee <seth.forshee@...onical.com>

commit ff0bc08454917964291f72ee5b8eca66de4bc250 upstream.

A failed call to dqget() returns an ERR_PTR() and not null. Fix
the check in ext4_ioctl_setproject() to handle this correctly.

Fixes: 9b7365fc1c82 ("ext4: add FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR/FS_IOC_FSGETXATTR interface support")
