XFS fixes needed in stable kernels

[Dave Chinner]

Hi Stable Kernel Gurus!

The following XFs fixes need to be pushed back to stable kernels.
The commits weren't all tagged in the recent 3.17-rc1 merge, so
you're getting an email from me instead. The commits required
from 3.17-rc1 are:

67dc288 xfs: ensure verifiers are attached to recovered buffers
5fd364f xfs: quotacheck leaves dquot buffers without verifiers
ad3714b xfs: dquot recovery needs verifiers

These are definitely needed for 3.16.y and 3.15.y, but aren't
critical for 3.14 and 3.13 because it only affects configurations
marked "experimetal: use at your own risk" and probably won't apply
easily.  They aren't necessary at all for older kernels than
3.13....

Cheers,

Dave.

You already marked this one, but it didn't apply to 3.10-stable

Now queued up.

Didn't apply at all to 3.16-stable :(
