This patch tries to stop users to create/destroy qgroup level 0,
users can only create/destroy qgroup level more than 0.

See the fact:
	a subvolume/snapshot qgroup was created automatically
when creating subvolume/snapshot, so creating a qgroup level 0 can't
be a subvolume/snapshot qgroup, the only way to use it is that assigning
subvolume/snapshot qgroup to it, the point is that we don't want to have a
parent qgroup whose level is 0.

	So we want to force users to use qgroup with clear relations
which means a parent qgroup's level > child qgroup's level.For example:

                          2/0
                         /    \
                        /      \
                       /        \
                      1/0       1/1
                    /     \        \
                   /       \        \       
                  /         \        \
            	0/256     0/257    0/258

This pattern of quota is nature and easy for users to understand, otherwise it will
make the quota configuration confusing and difficult to maintain.

I agree that a strict hierarchy of the levels should be enforced.
Currently the kernel has no idea of 'level', it's just an artificial
concept that lives in userspace. This patch would be the first place
to add that magic shift '48' to the kernel.
In my opinion it would be sufficient to do the enforcement in user
space, as it is of no technical nature.

Yes, it is.However, more work needs done to make it work well..
I'd continue my work based on integration-20130126..
