  Please don't use assignment in conditions... It's against kernel's coding
style.

  Umm, I don't like this. I think we should just silently skip the quota
modification. The error has already been passed to the filesystem during
dquot_initialize and this would effectively disallow any allocation on the
filesystem if quota structure isn't available which might be a bit
impractical.
