The code comment says "We will [apply the umask] ourselves", but that
happens in posix_acl_create() only if the kernel has POSIX ACL
support.  Without it, posix_acl_create() is a is an empty dummy
function.

So let's not pretend we will apply the umask if we can already know
that we will never.

This fixes a problem where the umask is always ignored in the NFS
client when compiled without CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL.  This is a 4 year
old regression caused by commit 013cdf1088d723 which itself was not
completely wrong, but failed to consider all the side effects by
misdesigned VFS code.

There are two compile-time checks and one runtime check:

- If CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL=n, then MS_POSIXACL is never set.

- If CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL=y and CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL=n, then only NFSv4
  has ACL support (and cannot be disabled), and we need to check for
  "version==4".

- If CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL=y and CONFIG_NFS_V3_ACL=y, MS_POSIXACL is
  always set, as before.
