Even simpler would be if knfsd didn't send the attribute if not
necessary. Looks like there's code actively creating the nfs4_acl on
the wire even if the filesystem had none:
pacl =3D get_acl(inode, ACL_TYPE_ACCESS);
if (!pacl)
pacl =3D posix_acl_from_mode(inode->i_mode, GFP_KERNEL);
What's the point?
Thanks,
