4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit 61157b24e60fb3cd1f85f2c76a7b1d628f970144 upstream.
The function frees qf_inode via iput but then pass qf_inode to lockdep_set_quota_inode on the failure path. This may result in a use-after-free bug. The patch frees df_inode only when it is never used.
