If a name lookup is needed, then gluster cannot provide NFS semantics in
these circumstances.  NFS *requires* that access by handle continue to
work once the client has a handle.  In fact, there's no way to get a
name for this, since the name doesn't exist anywhere in the handle (by
design, since a name is an attribute of a dirent, not of a handle/inode).

So, this likely is a bug in Gluster, and needs to be fixed there.  Would
it be possible to enable quota globally at the start as a workaround?

Quota is a function that can be enabled at any time.
If enable quota immediately after creating filesystem (contains only one directory "/"), 
the trusted.pgfid extend-attribute is created automatically when creating file,
this problem is not exit.
