From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit a992f2d38e4ce17b8c7d1f7f67b2de0eebdea069 ] When new directory 'DIR1' is created in a directory 'DIR0' with SGID bit set, DIR1 is expected to have SGID bit set (and owning group equal to the owning group of 'DIR0'). However when 'DIR0' also has some default ACLs that 'DIR1' inherits, setting these ACLs will result in SGID bit on 'DIR1' to get cleared if user is not member of the owning group. Fix the problem by creating __ext2_set_acl() function that does not call posix_acl_update_mode() and use it when inheriting ACLs. That prevents SGID bit clearing and the mode has been properly set by posix_acl_create() anyway.
