Looks good to me. Just one question below:

So this doesn't do any checks that the resulting time fits into 34-bits you
speak about in the changelog. So how will XFS react if malicious / buggy
userspace will pass too big timestamp? I suppose xfs_fs_set_dqblk() should
return EFBIG or EINVAL or something like that which I'm not sure it does...

For record I've checked VFS quota implementation and it doesn't need any
checks because VFS in memory structures and on-disk format use 64-bit
timestamps. The ancient quota format uses 32-bit timestamps for 32-bit
archs so these would get silently truncated when stored on disk but
honestly I don't think I care (that format was deprecated some 20 years
ago).
