[PATCH 2/2] xfs: don't swallow dquot recovery verification errors

xlog_recover_dquot_commit_pass2() validates the recovered dquot with
xfs_dqblk_verify() and, on failure, sets error = -EFSCORRUPTED and jumps
to out_release.  But out_release unconditionally returns 0, so the
corruption error is discarded: the caller xlog_recover_items_pass2()
sees success, log recovery proceeds as if the dquot were valid, and the
corrupt quota buffer can be written back to disk.

Fixes: 9c235dfc3d3f ("xfs: dquot recovery does not validate the recovered dquot")
