Mount without > quota succeeds without a problem. Looking over the oops mutex_lock is dereferencing a member at offset 0x20 of a structure that unexpectly is a NULL pointer. The only mutex_lock calls in xfs_qm_sync are on qi_dqlist_lock, which happens to be exactly at the offset 0x20 that the oops is complaining about. So the quick patch below should prevent the OOPS for you and print a warnings instead, although I'll have to dig a bit deeper to figure out the root cause.
