sb_uquotino does not require any translation, but sb_pquotino simply
doesn't exist on older sb's, right? Is that what you mean to say here?
E.g., we clear XFS_SB_PQUOTINO from fields below, so the field loop
isn't going to write it (and I take that's the right thing to do).

We update the field manually and clear the flag bit so the loop doesn't
handle it. Seems Ok, despite my minor confusion over the above comment:
