[lxc-users] Limits kind of not working

[Pavol Cupka]

well it looks like it gets set correctly also for btrfs

btrfs qgroup show -reF /var/lib/lxd/containers/c1/
qgroupid         rfer         excl     max_rfer     max_excl
--------         ----         ----     --------     --------
0/528         1.02GiB    156.54MiB         none     20.00GiB
