The effective quota of a scheme is initialized zero, which means there is
no quota. It is set based on user-specified time/quota/quota goals. But
the later value set is done only from the second charge window. As a
result, a scheme having a user-specified quota can work as not having the
quota (unexpectedly fast) for the first charge window. In practical and
common use cases the quota interval is not too long, and the scheme's
target access pattern is restrictive. Hence the issue should be modest.
That said, it is apparently an unintended misbehavior. Fix the problem by
setting esz on the first charge window.
