Subject: [PATCH RFC] nfs4: add a get_acl stub handler

In older kernels, attempting to fetch that system.posix_acl_access on
NFSv4 would return -EOPNOTSUPP, but in more recent kernels that returns
-ENODATA.

Most filesystems that don't support POSIX ACLs leave the SB_POSIXACL
flag clear, which cues the VFS to return -EOPNOTSUPP in this situation.
We can't do that with NFSv4 since that flag also cues the VFS to avoid
applying the umask early.

Fix this by adding a stub get_acl handler for NFSv4 that always returns
-EOPNOTSUPP.

I suspect that this problem popped in due to some VFS layer changes. I
haven't identified the patch that broke it, but I think this is probably
the least invasive way to fix it.

Another alternative would be to return -EOPNOTSUPP on filesystems that
set SB_POSIXACL but that don't set get_acl or get_inode_acl.

Thoughts?
