[RFC PATCH] quota: Fix possible GFP due to uninitialised pointers

[Nikolay Borisov]

While debugging some issues with quota I realized that
it's possible to pass array with bogus dquot pointers from
__dquot_initialize to dqput. This can happen if the initialisation
of the dquot objects for an inode fail and the control flow is
transferred to the out_put label. In case only the USR or GRP quota
are initialised then the PRJ pointer in the "got" array would remain
uninitialised. This will cause the NULL ptr check in dqput to pass
but actually the pointer is going to be invalid. Eventually this would
cause a GFP.

To fix this just zero out the got array
