As you pointed out in the bug report, there is not much testing
infrastructure for NFSv4 ACLs. It will be hard to tell in
advance if this change results in a behavior regression.

On the other hand, I'm not sure we have a large cohort of
NFSv4 ACL users on Linux.

I can certainly apply this to nfsd-next at least for a few
weeks to see if anyone yelps.
