nfsd: check permissions when setting ACLs
Use set_posix_acl, which includes proper permission checks, instead of calling ->set_acl directly. Without this anyone may be able to grant themselves permissions to a file by setting the ACL. Lock the inode to make the new checks atomic with respect to set_acl. (Also, nfsd was the only caller of set_acl not locking the inode, so I suspect this may fix other races.) This also simplifies the code, and ensures our ACLs are checked by posix_acl_valid. The permission checks and the inode locking were lost with commit 4ac7249e, which changed nfsd to use the set_acl inode operation directly instead of going through xattr handlers.
