xfs: rework dquot CRCs

Calculating dquot CRCs when the backing buffer is written back just
doesn't work reliably. There are several places which manipulate
dquots directly in the buffers, and they don't calculate CRCs
appropriately, nor do they always set the buffer up to calculate
CRCs appropriately.

Firstly, if we log a dquot buffer (e.g. during allocation) it gets
logged without valid CRC, and so on recovery we end up with a dquot
that is not valid.

Secondly, if we recover/repair a dquot, we don't have a verifier
attached to the buffer and hence CRCs are not calculated on the way
down to disk.

Thirdly, calculating the CRC after we've changed the contents means
that if we re-read the dquot from the buffer, we cannot verify the
contents of the dquot are valid, as the CRC is invalid.

So, to avoid all the dquot CRC errors that are being detected by the
read verifier, change to using the same model as for inodes. That
is, dquot CRCs are calculated and written to the backing buffer at
the time the dquot is flushed to the backing buffer. If we modify
the dquot directly in the backing buffer, calculate the CRC
immediately after the modification is complete. Hence the dquot in
the on-disk buffer should always have a valid CRC.
