Subject: [PATCH 3.14 84/88] nfs3_list_one_acl(): check get_acl() result with IS_ERR_OR_NULL

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrey Utkin <andrey.krieger.utkin@...il.com>

commit 7a9e75a185e6b3a3860e6a26fb6e88691fc2c9d9 upstream.

There was a check for result being not NULL. But get_acl() may return
NULL, or ERR_PTR, or actual pointer.
The purpose of the function where current change is done is to "list
ACLs only when they are available", so any error condition of get_acl()
mustn't be elevated, and returning 0 there is still valid.

Fixes: 74adf83f5d77 (nfs: only show Posix ACLs in listxattr if actually...)
