Small summary from my observation:

- mkfs.xfs sets all three [ugp]quotino to 0 (contrary to what comment above 
says: "older mkfs doesn't initialize quota inodes to NULLFSINO.". New/fresh 
mkfs.xfs also doesn't do that. Were any intermediate versions actually setting 
NULLFSINO ?

- freshly created fs; 3.10 kernel; mount image -o usrquota causes: uquotino 
gets NEW inode; gquotino is set to null; pquotino not used (stays at 0)

- 3.16 behaviour is different; freshly created fs; mount image -o usrquota 
causes: uquotino gets NEW inode; gquotino/pquotino stays at 0 (while on 3.10 
gquotino was being set to null)

- 3.10 kernel is not able to handle case when uquotino == value, gquotino == 
0. For 3.10 this case is impossible / should never happen. 3.10 expects 
(uquotino == value, gquotino == null) or (uquotino == value, gquotino == 
othervalue) or (uqotinfo == null, gruotino == value) only.

- this means that fresh fs; mount under 3.16 with -o usrquota. Try to mount 
the same fs on 3.10 but with -o usrquota,grpquota -> will fail "Failed to 
initialize disk quotas."

- 3.16 handles both cases (uquotino == val, gquotino == 0, too) because it 
does translation when reading from disk (the one cited at beginning of this 
mail)

Probably solution is to make xfs_repair make if [ugp]quotino  == 0 set these 
to null. IMO old and new kernels should handle null properly (regardless of 
quota feature bit state). mkfs.xfs should also get updated to set these to 
null initially. 

Last question/issue is: should mount fail in case of "Failed to initialize 
disk quotas." problem? Right now user requests quotas to be enabled but gets 
fs without quota (and the only failure indication is one line in dmesg).
