This is usually the case when you write to container filesystem from the
host bypassing vzquota — to /vz/private rather than /vz/root.

To fix, you need to reinitialize the quota. Stop container, do vzquota drop
$CTID and start it again. vzquota drop removes quota file, so they have to
be re-created on container start.
