This patch adds the read-write attribute quota_override into sysfs.
Any process which has cap_sys_resource can set this flag to on, and
once it is set to true, processes with cap_sys_resource can exceed
the quota.

So we've moved to the hardest part, where to put the sysfs file and how
to name it.

My first though was against putting it right under the filesystem UUID
and rather introduce a directory with all tunables, but we already
have a read-write label there. Ok then.

The valid values are 0 and 1. And no locking is needed as fs_info::flags
are updated atomically (once patch 1 is updated).
