Should that be -ENOSPC?

I do wonder, why does ext4 need to know about richacls at all?  Surely, as far
as ext4 is concerned, they should be seen as xattrs?

If ext4 needs a mark on disk to say it supports richacls, then why can't that
simply be the presence or lack thereof of a richacl on the root dir?
