The following is in the ext4 tree:
commit c77194965dd0dcc26f9c1671d2e74e4eb1248af5
Author: Max Kellermann <max.kellermann@xxxxxxxxx>

Revert "ext4: apply umask if ACL support is disabled"
This reverts commit 484fd6c1de13b336806a967908a927cc0356e312. The
commit caused a regression because now the umask was applied to
symlinks and the fix is unnecessary because the umask/O_TMPFILE bug
has been fixed somewhere else already.
