Re: [RFC] quota: 64-bit limits with vfs

Hello, Jan.

I agree with your comments except for the one below.

Why do you think these macros don't do the right thing?
How can they fail? I can't agree with you that introducing
separate functions for id/time and duplicating code in 
disk2memdqblk and mem2diskdqblk is more nice than using
several uniform macros(why aren't the latter nice, btw?). 
Wasn't that you who told me that code duplication is no good? ;)

Thank you for your patience.
Andrew.
