[patch 06/16] ocfs2: drop acl cache for directories too

Subject: ocfs2: drop acl cache for directories too

ocfs2_data_convert_worker() is currently dropping any cached acl info for
FILE before down-converting meta lock.  It should also drop for DIRECTORY.
Otherwise the second acl lookup returns the cached one (from VFS layer)
which could be already stale.

The problem we are seeing is that the acl changes on one node doesn't get
refreshed on other nodes in the following case:

  Node 1                    Node 2
--------------            ----------------
getfacl dir1

			  getfacl dir1    <-- this is OK

setfacl -m u:user1:rwX dir1
getfacl dir1   <-- see the change for user1

			  getfacl dir1    <-- can't see change for user1
