Ah, right, thanks for the clarification. I *think* the following
patch in the ext4 dev branch (not yet in Linus's tree, but it should
be in linux-next) should be harmless, though, right? And once we get
the changes in vfs_prepare_mode() we can revert in ext4 --- or do
folks I think I should just drop it from the ext4 dev branch now?
Thanks,

ext4: apply umask if ACL support is disabled
The function ext4_init_acl() calls posix_acl_create() which is
responsible for applying the umask. But without
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL, ext4_init_acl() is an empty inline function,
and nobody applies the umask.
This fixes a bug which causes the umask to be ignored with O_TMPFILE
on ext4:
