Hahah, to be honest, the title '[PATCH 0/2] squota delete fstests' gave me
a minor heart attack. I thought it was a critical bug report about fstests
accidentally deleting itself while running :-D

This change doesn't seem related to patch 2/2. I think we can review
these 2 patches separately.

For this patch, I'm fine with or without it. If the btrfs list prefers
to have it, or move it to be a common helper, I'm good with that.

Thanks,
Zorro
