From: Andreas Gruenbacher Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2010 16:12:45 +0530 Subject: [PATCH 02/16] vfs: Add generic IS_ACL() test for acl support Patch-mainline: not yet When IS_POSIXACL() is true, the vfs does not apply the umask. Other acl models will need the same exception, so introduce a separate IS_ACL() test. The IS_POSIX_ACL() test is still needed so that nfsd can determine when the underlying file system supports POSIX ACLs (as opposed to some other kind).
