This patch introduces the quota override flag to btrfs_fs_info, and
a change to quota limit checking code to temporarily allow for quota
to be overridden for processes with cap_sys_resource.
It's useful for administrative programs, such as log rotation,
that may need to temporarily use more disk space in order to free up
a greater amount of overall disk space without yielding more disk
space to the rest of userland.
Eventually, we may want to add the idea of an operator-specific
quota, operator reserved space, or something else to allow for
administrative override, but this is perhaps the simplest
solution.
