From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@xxxxxxxxxx> Some file permission models differentiate between writing to a file (MAY_WRITE) and appending to it (MAY_WRITE | MAY_APPEND). Pass all the mask flags down to iop->check_acl so that filesystems can distinguish between writing and appending. All users of iop->check_acl pass the mask value back into posix_acl_permission(); strip off the additional mask flags there.
