ext4: remove unnecessary [cm]time update of quota file
It is not necessary to update [cm]time of quota file on each quota
file write and it wastes journal space and IO throughput with inode
writes. So just remove the updating from ext4_quota_write() and only
update times when quotas are being turned off. Userspace cannot get
anything reliable from quota files while they are used by the kernel
anyway.
