All of the callback functions for iterate_supers either ignore the
opaque argument, or dereference the pointer only to fetch the int
to which it points.

Change quota_sync_one to just cast the int from the pointer,
and change sync_fs_one_sb to just use a NULL/non-NULL pointer as a
flag.

As much as I have a feeling "why do we bother", the patch looks correct :).
So feel free to add:
