I haven't seen this one before. And it's a real bug, too.
gcc-4.3.1 on x86_64 is not picking this warning up:

$ gcc -v

What compiler version are you using?

I'll send out a patch to fix this in a minute.

False positive, and I don't get this reported, either.

Hold on - the above gcc binary only emits a warning for the xfs_growfs_rt issue
when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y is set. It still doesn't catch the quota
bug, though. This is so fucked up....

Cheers,

Dave.
