Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: should add a permission check for setfacl

On btrfs, do the following
------------------
# su user1
# cd btrfs-part/
# touch aaa
# getfacl aaa
  # file: aaa
  # owner: user1
  # group: user1
  user::rw-
  group::rw-
  other::r--
# su user2
# cd btrfs-part/
# setfacl -m u::rwx aaa
# getfacl aaa
  # file: aaa
  # owner: user1
  # group: user1
  user::rwx           <- successed to setfacl
  group::rw-
  other::r--
------------------
but we should prohibit it that user2 changing user1's acl.
In fact, on ext3 and other fs, a message occurs:
  setfacl: aaa: Operation not permitted

This patch fixed it.
