Why would we do this for only id == 0? This will still allow
non-zero warning values to be written to dquots that have id != 0,
but I'm not sure why we'd allow this given that the previous
patch just removed all the warning limit checking?

Which then makes me ask: why are we still reading the warning counts
from on disk dquots and writing in-memory values back to dquots?
Shouldn't xfs_dquot_to_disk() just write zeros to the warning fields
now, and xfs_dquot_from_disk() elide reading the warning counts
altogether? i.e. can we remove d_bwarns, d_iwarns and d_rtbwarns
from the struct fs_disk_quota altogether now?

Which then raises the question of whether copy_from_xfs_dqblk() and
friends should still support warn counts up in fs/quota/quota.c...?

Cheers,

Dave.
