[patch 16/16] Cache acls on the nfs client side

[Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: nfsacl-cache-acls-on-the-nfs-client-side.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7808 bytes --]

Attach acls to inodes in the icache to avoid unnecessary GETACL RPC
round-trips.  As long as the client doesn't retrieve any acls itself, only the
default acls of exiting directories and the default and access acls of new
directories will end up in the cache, which preserves some memory compared to
always caching the access and default acl of all files.
