Wouldn't it be a problem if the directory layout (or, in this case, the
snaprealm layout) change during the mount lifetime?  In that case we
would need to do this lookup anyway.

In this case I believe we get an -EPERM from the MDS.  And then the
client simply falls back to the 'default' behaviour, which is to allow
the user to create/write to files as if there were no quotas set.
