For noacl/nouser_xattr, have some disscussion in here[1].
Also, I want to remove deprecated flag[2] but seems removing these
deprecated options is better.
I just use noacl mount option in ltp/xfstests test case[3][4], but seems
none use them in application because none comlain about these deprecated
flags over the years.
