Hi Russell,

The following patch should fix the above problem. It needs to be applied
on top of the one I sent you previously. In addition, you will want to
apply Noah Massey's patch from
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1391135472-9639-1-git-send-email-Noah.Massey@gmail.com 

Cheers,
  Trond

Subject: [PATCH] NFSv3: Fix return value of nfs3_proc_setacls

nfs3_proc_setacls is used internally by the NFSv3 create operations
to set the acl after the file has been created. If the operation
fails because the server doesn't support acls, then it must return '0',
not -EOPNOTSUPP.
