Add infrastructure for supporting get_nextdqblk() callback for VFS
quotas. Translate the operation into a callback to appropriate
filesystem and consequently to quota format callback.

I'm a little confused here. What patchset is this dependent on? i.e.
what introduces the ->get_nextdqblk method?

The patches I currently have in my XFS working tree introduce this
(quota: add new quotactl Q_XGETNEXTQUOTA) and everythign else is
dependent on this. I looked a coupl eof days ago and I wasnt' able
to find this in your tree.

I'd much prefer that one of us publish a stable branch with just the
quotactl() infrastructure (i.e. commands and bits up to the
->get_nextdqblk() callback) that we can then both base the different
subsystem implementations off, rather than one of us having to pull
in a whole tree of changes just to get the one commit we need...
Jan, I've posted a stable branch with the quotactl() changes and
the XFS implementation here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs.git xfs-get-next-dquot-4.6

It's currently in the xfs for-next branch for wider testing - I've
done this because I want to get all the pending XFS code out into
for-next land early in this cycle so I can move on and concentrate
on rmap/reflink for the rest of the cycle.

If you want to do this through your tree instead of the XFS tree
then let me know when you publish a branch with quotactl changes in
it so I can rebuild the XFS for-next branch to use that.
Alternatively, i can pull the rest of the generic changes in this
patch set into the branch I already have, so it's all in one place
for ease of testing....

Cheeers,

Dave.
