4.2.8-ckt7 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

From: Nikolay Borisov <ker...@kyup.com>

commit ab73ef46398e2c0159f3a71de834586422d2a44a upstream.

When dqget() in __dquot_initialize() fails e.g. due to IO error,
__dquot_initialize() will pass an array of uninitialized pointers to
dqput_all() and thus can lead to deference of random data. Fix the
problem by properly initializing the array.
