Subject[PATCH -V2 05/16] richacl: Permission mapping functions
Date
From: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruen@suse.de>

We need to map from POSIX permissions to NFSv4 permissions when a
chmod() is done, from NFSv4 permissions to POSIX permissions when an acl
is set (which implicitly sets the file permission bits), and from the
MAY_READ/MAY_WRITE/MAY_EXEC/MAY_APPEND flags to NFSv4 permissions when
doing an access check in a richacl.
