The quotacheck occurs later in the mount process. IIRC, just
clearing the relevant XFS_[UGP]QUOTA_CHKD flag will cause a quota
check to be done at the appropriate time.

Yes, I think that will be sufficient with an appropriate warning.

Ah, so it is the same as the previous case I mentioned needs a
comment. Can you document this here as well?

Hmmm. DEBUG shouldn't cause you any extra problems unless there
really is something wrong - I run almost exclusively with DEBUG
enabled and I rarely have problems with spurious ASSERT()s
triggering. It's better to report spurious/unrelated ASSERT()
failures than to ignore them. 

[ FWIW, the only time I turnoff DEBUG is when I'm doing performance
benchmarking to get maximum numbers - DEBUG drops metadata
throughput by about 25% and changes allocation patterns to improve
code coverage, so the results of performance testing with DEBUG are
not really representative. ]

In the mean time, run with DEBUG without your patches and exclude
all the tests that trigger problems on a vanilla kernel (e.g. via
'echo 068 >> expunged') and then run with you patches. Any new
failures are likely to be caused by your patches and need to be
analysed.

Cheers,

Dave.
