Subject: [PATCH] fs/ext4/acl: apply umask if ACL support is disabled

The function ext4_init_acl() calls posix_acl_create() which is
responsible for applying the umask.  But without
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL, ext4_init_acl() is an empty inline function,
and nobody applies the umask.

This fixes a bug which causes the umask to be ignored with O_TMPFILE
on ext4:
