The free block should actually be > QT_TREEOFF so I'd add the check to
do_check_range().

'dh->dqdh_next_free' may be updated when quota entry removed,
'dh->dqdh_next_free' can be used for next new quota entris.
Before sending v2, I found 'dh->dqdh_next_free' and 'dh->dqdh_prev_free' can
easily be zero in newly allocated blocks when continually creating files
onwed by different users:
find_free_dqentry
get_free_dqblk
write_blk(info, info->dqi_blocks, buf) // zero'd qt_disk_dqdbheader
blk = info->dqi_blocks++ // allocate new one block
info->dqi_free_entry = blk // will be used for new quota entries

find_free_dqentry
if (info->dqi_free_entry)
blk = info->dqi_free_entry
read_blk(info, blk, buf) // dh->dqdh_next_free = dh->dqdh_prev_free =
0

I think it's normal when 'dh->dqdh_next_free' or 'dh->dqdh_prev_free' equals
to 0.

Good point! 0 means "not present". So any block number (either in free list
or pointed from the quota tree) should be either 0 or > QT_TREEOFF.
