Subject: [PATCHSET 4/5] fuse2fs: delegate access control to kernel

Hi all,

To speed up fuse2fs, let's allow the kernel to make the access control
decisions for mode and acls instead of crappily trying to do that on
our own.

If you're going to start using this code, I strongly recommend pulling
from my git trees, which are linked below.

Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.
