fix XFS_QUOTA for modular XFS

This patch by Dimitri Puzin submitted through kernel Bugzilla #5514 fixes the following issue:

Cannot build XFS filesystem support as module with quota support. It works only when the XFS filesystem support is compiled into the kernel. Menuconfig prevents from setting CONFIG_XFS_FS=m and CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.

How to reproduce: configure the XFS filesystem with quota support as module. The resulting kernel won't have quota support compiled into xfs.ko.

Fix: Changing the fs/xfs/Kconfig file from tristate to bool lets you configure the quota support to be compiled into the XFS module. The Makefile-linux-2.6 checks only for CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.

Thanks, will queue for -stable, but this hasn't made it upstream yet.

Sorry, public holiday here has meant no action on that front - it is "good to go" though, and will be sent to Linus when I'm back in the office.

cheers.
