nfsd4: don't create unnecessary mask acl
Any setattr of the ACL attribute, even if it sets just the basic 3-ACE ACL exactly as it was returned from a file with only mode bits, creates a mask entry, and it is only the mask, not group, entry that is changed by subsequent modifications of the mode bits. So, for example, it's surprising that GROUP@ is left without read or write permissions after a chmod 0666: touch test chmod 0600 test nfs4_getfacl test A::OWNER@:rwatTcCy A::GROUP@:tcy A::EVERYONE@:tcy nfs4_getfacl test | nfs4_setfacl -S - test # chmod 0666 test nfs4_getfacl test A::OWNER@:rwatTcCy A::GROUP@:tcy D::GROUP@:rwa A::EVERYONE@:rwatcy So, let's stop creating the unnecessary mask ACL. A mask will still be created on non-trivial ACLs (ACLs with actual named user and group ACEs), so the odd posix-acl behavior of chmod modifying only the mask will still be left in that case; but that's consistent with local behavior.
