When the size of acl extended attribution is larger than pre-allocated value buffer size, we will hit error '-ERANGE' and it's probabaly caused by concurrent get/set acl from different clients. In this case, current logic just sets acl to NULL so that we cannot get proper information but the operation looks successful. This patch adds retry logic for error -ERANGE and return -EIO if fail from retry.
