The qown vs id distinction bothers me a little bit.

I almost want to name it struct kid, and the functions make_kid,
from_kid etc.  Where the emphasis is that we are transforming in and out
of the kernel internal form.  I don't really like make_kid because id as
a base name seems to generic and it barely tells you it is.  Perhaps
make_kqid.  Where we call the quota ids and qid for short?

I am a little uncomfortable calling them kqids because the userspace
code also places format_ids in a plain qid_t.  But make_kqid and
from_kqid seems the best alternate set of names I can come up with.
