Problems about acl_get_file used in posix_pacl_get

[Kinglong Mee <kinglongmee@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello folks,

nfs-ganesha using the new gfapi named glfs_h_acl_set/glfs_h_acl_get,
at xlator posix, glusterfsd calls acl_get_file/acl_set_file (libacl functions) to process xattrs.

By default, sys_lsetxattr/sys_llistxattr/sys_lgetxattr/sys_lremovexattr are used to process xattrs.
But, unfortunately, those two functions do syscall by getxattr/setxattr.
I don't think that is we want.

Is it a known problem ?

------------ following are acl_get_file/acl_set_file functions ------------------
