commit ab73ef46398e2c0159f3a71de834586422d2a44a upstream.

When dqget() in __dquot_initialize() fails e.g. due to IO error,
__dquot_initialize() will pass an array of uninitialized pointers to
dqput_all() and thus can lead to deference of random data. Fix the
problem by properly initializing the array.

The process of reducing contention on per-superblock inode lists
starts with moving the locking to match the per-superblock inode
list. This takes the global lock out of the picture and reduces the
contention problems to within a single filesystem. This doesn't get
rid of contention as the locks still have global CPU scope, but it
does isolate operations on different superblocks form each other.

Currently when some error happened in -&gt;acquire_dquot(), dqget() just
returned NULL. That was indistinguishable from a case when e.g. someone
run quotaoff and so was generally silently ignored. However
-&gt;acquire_dquot() can fail because of ENOSPC or EIO in which case user
should better know. So propagate error up from -&gt;acquire_dquot properly.

<title>quota: Fix maximum quota limit settings</title>

Currently quota format that supports 64-bit usage sets maximum quota
limit as 2^64-1. However quota core code uses signed numbers to track
usage and even limits themselves are stored in long long. Checking of
maximum allowable limits worked by luck until commit 14bf61ffe6ac
(quota: Switch -&gt;get_dqblk() and -&gt;set_dqblk() to use bytes as space
units) because variable we compared with was unsigned. After that commit
the type we compared against changed to signed and thus checks for
maximum limits with the newest VFS quota format started to refuse any
non-negative value. Later the problem was inadvertedly fixed by commit
b10a08194c2b (quota: Store maximum space limit in bytes) because we
started to compare against unsigned type as well.

Fix possible future problems of this kind by setting maximum limits to
2^63-1 to avoid overflow issues.
