Subject: [PATCH 4.8 076/138] ovl: fix get_acl() on tmpfs

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

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

From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@...hat.com>

commit b93d4a0eb308d4400b84c8b24c1b80e09a9497d0 upstream.

tmpfs doesn't have ->get_acl() because it only uses cached acls.

This fixes the acl tests in pjdfstest when tmpfs is used as the upper layer
of the overlay.
