posix_acl_alloc() uses kmalloc, so if it's not failing to allocate
there, then we don't need to use vmalloc here. besides, if we've got
over a single page of acls, then we are talking about 350 ACLs on an
inode. Most admins go insane at more than 20, and the people asking
for more than 25 are using 30-40 ACLs at most. So i don't see there
being a problem here using kzalloc.

Ugh, I lost that in translation somewhere. Good catch.
