My reproduction condition is:
mkfs.ext4 -F /dev/sda
tune2fs  -Q usrquota /dev/sda

dquot_disable
...
          if ((flags & DQUOT_USAGE_ENABLED && !(flags & 
DQUOT_LIMITS_ENABLED))
              || (flags & DQUOT_SUSPENDED && flags & (DQUOT_LIMITS_ENABLED |
              DQUOT_USAGE_ENABLED)))
                  return -EINVAL;
...
If without enable DQUOT_LIMITS_ENABLED dquot_disable() will just return 
-EINVAL.
