Hi,

This patchset is base on [1] and [2], adding implementation of ACLs for
ubifs.

Implement ACLs features based on POSIX to solve some difficulties that
require fine-grained access control. At the same time, it is also to
facilitate cross-file system migration.

In order to simplify the implementation, only v2 version POSIX ACLs are
implemented, eliminating the need for in-memory and on-flash format
conversion. And no need to implement security xattr handler in ubifs.

Some testcases have been tested and passed:
  * generic testcases (modified version) for acl group in xfstest[3], they are generic/026/053/077/099/105/237/307/318/319/375/389/444/449/529/697.
  * tacl_xattr.sh (modified version) in LTP[4].

[4]: https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/blob/master/testcases/kernel/fs/acl/tacl_xattr.sh

Changelog:
v1 -> v2:
  * Adjust patch order.
  * Modify ubifs_xattr_remove to an external function to remove the
  * xattr of ACL.
  * Fix handling of updating file mode via ACL.
