SB_POSIXACL must be set when a filesystem supports POSIX ACLs, but NFSv4 also sets this flag to prevent the VFS from applying the umask on newly-created files. NFSv4 doesn't support POSIX ACLs however, which causes confusion when other subsystems try to test for them. Add a new SB_I_NOUMASK flag that allows filesystems to opt-in to umask stripping without advertising support for POSIX ACLs. Set the new flag on NFSv4 instead of SB_POSIXACL. Also, move mode_strip_umask to namei.h and convert init_mknod and init_mkdir to use it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
