[ Upstream commit a26aa12384158116c0d80d50e0bdc7b3323551e2 ]
The xattr code in ntfs3 is currently a bit confused. For example, it
defines a POSIX ACL i_op->set_acl() method but instead of relying on the
generic POSIX ACL VFS helpers it defines its own set of xattr helpers
with the consequence that i_op->set_acl() is currently dead code.
Switch ntfs3 to rely on the VFS POSIX ACL xattr handlers. Also remove
i_op->{g,s}et_acl() methods from symlink inode operations. Symlinks
don't support xattrs.
This is a preliminary change for the following patches which move
handling idmapped mounts directly in posix_acl_xattr_set().
This survives POSIX ACL xfstests.

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.
