.. I went back to my email archives, and it turns out that I _only_
sent it to you, not to the ext4 lists at all.
Oh well. It was this patch:
--- a/fs/ext4/inode.c
+++ b/fs/ext4/inode.c
@@ -5011,6 +5011,11 @@ struct inode *__ext4_iget(...
}
brelse(iloc.bh);
+
+ /* Initialize the "no ACL's" state for the simple cases */
+ if (!ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_XATTR) && !ei->i_file_acl)
+ cache_no_acl(inode);
+
unlock_new_inode(inode);
return inode;
and I think that's pretty much exactly the same patch as the one
Mateusz posted, just one line down (and the line numbers are different
because that patch was from five months ago and there's been some
unrelated changes since.
