Umm...  That makes ...,usrjquota,... equivalent to ...,usrjquota=,...
unless I'm misreading the series.  Different from mainline, right?

That's even more interesting.  Current mainline:
		barrier		OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		barrier=0	OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		barrier=42	OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		barrier=yes	error
		barrier=no	error
		nobarrier	OK, clears EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
Unless I'm misreading your series, you get
		barrier		error
		barrier=0	OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		barrier=42	error
		barrier=yes	OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		barrier=no	OK, sets EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER
		nobarrier	OK, clears EXT4_MOUNT_BARRIER

Granted, mainline behaviour is... unintuitive, to put it mildly,
but the replacement is just as strange _and_ incompatible with the
existing one.

Am I missing something subtle there?
