[PATCH] fix umask when noACL kernel meets extN tuned for ACLs
Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2 or ext3 or ext4 filesystem is tuned to mount with "acl", but mounted by a kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666, and mkdir creates directories as 0777. This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does, unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[234] set MS_POSIXACL in s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts. We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[234]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test); but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs). Likewise don't set the XATTR_USER flag when built without XATTR support.
