[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] quota: Add callbacks for allocating and destroying dquot structures

[Jan Kara]

Some filesystems would like to keep private information together with each
dquot. Add callbacks alloc_dquot and destroy_dquot allowing filesystem to
allocate larger dquots from their private slab in a similar fashion we
currently allocate inodes.
