  I guess some people won't like bloating the VFS inode. It personally
makes my "quota" life easier but not that many filesystems need this
(currently I'm aware of only ext4) so their complaints are reasonable...
  If we would eventually decide to go this way, I'd account reserved
space in bytes - quota is really accounted in bytes (as some filesystems
need this).
