Yi found during a review of the patch "ext4: don't BUG on inconsistent

To solve this problem, we add a "failed_mount10" tag, and call
ext4_quota_off_umount() in this tag to release the enabled qoutas.

Looks good. Just one comment:

+failed_mount10:
+#ifdef CONFIG_QUOTA
+ ext4_quota_off_umount(sb);
failed_mount9:
+#endif /* CONFIG_QUOTA */
How about dealing with this using __maybe_unused attribute instead. Like:

failed_mount9: __maybe_unused

That would be much easier to read...

Indeed!

Thank you very much for the review!

I will send a patch V3 with the changes suggested by you.
