Well, the message suggests that you edited actual block usage of user and not his limit. That's why edquota complained and didn't change anything... So it's nothing related to kernel nor a bug ;). As a side note, I always found edquota(8) error prone and I think setquota(8) is a better tool to do what I need. But I guess it depends on one's taste.
