This sets SB_POSIXACL only if ACL support is really enabled, instead of always setting SB_POSIXACL if the NFS protocol version theoretically supports ACL. The code comment says "We will [apply the umask] ourselves", but that happens in posix_acl_create() only if the kernel has POSIX ACL support. Without it, posix_acl_create() is an empty dummy function. So let's not pretend we will apply the umask if we can already know that we will never. This fixes a problem where the umask is always ignored in the NFS client when compiled without CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL. This is a 4 year old regression caused by commit 013cdf1088d723 which itself was not completely wrong, but failed to consider all the side effects by misdesigned VFS code. Reviewed-by: J.
