[XFS] fix nasty quota hashtable allocation bug

This git mod: 77e4635a


converted to a "greedy" allocation interface, but for the quota hashtables
it switched from allocating XFS_QM_HASHSIZE (nr of elements)
xfs_dqhash_t's to allocating only XFS_QM_HASHSIZE *bytes* - quite a lot
smaller! Then when we converted hsize "back" to nr of elements (the
division line) hsize went to 0. This was leading to oopses when running
any quota tests on the Fedora 8 test kernel, but the problem has been
there for almost a year.
