This "solves" the quotacheck problem, but unfortunately it has many other negative consequences, such as:

Apr 08 05:01:29 hostname systemd[1]: swapfile.swap: Swap process exited, code=exited, status=255/EXCEPTION
Apr 08 05:01:29 hostname systemd[1]: swapfile.swap: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
Apr 08 05:01:29 hostname systemd[1]: Failed to activate swap /swapfile.

Apr 08 05:01:30 hostname systemd-tmpfiles[522]: rm_rf(/tmp): Read-only file system

Apr 08 05:01:30 hostname systemd[539]: systemd-timesyncd.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing: /run/systemd/unit-root/dev: Read-only file system
Apr 08 05:01:30 hostname systemd[539]: systemd-timesyncd.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /lib/systemd/systemd-timesyncd: Read-only file system

Such this "solution" can only be used as a "one shot" trick followed by a proper reboot with a rw file system.
