Thi isn't ext4-specific and potentially duplicated in every caller.
Please provide this as a common helper.
This can go in neither fs.h nor posix_acl.h nor richacl.h unless we
turn it into a macro, and I don't think we want to add a new header
file for such extreme trivia.
I'd expect us to grow a few more of thos helper if we get the sharing
right (either a real common base object, or wrappers for anything
dealing with the acl pointers in the inode), so a new linux/acl.h
should be fine.
