[PATCH 05/12] erofs: drop posix acl handlers

[Christoph Hellwig]

This review is not for erofs specifically, but for all file systems using
the same scheme.

I'm not a huge fan of all this duplicate logic in the file systems
that is more verbose and a bit confusing.  Until we remove the
xattr handlers entirely, I wonder if we just need to keep a
special ->list for posix xattrs, just to be able to keep the
old logic in all these file system.  That is a ->list that
works for xattr_dentry_list, but never actually lists anything.

That would remove all this boiler plate for now without minimal
core additions.  Eventually we can hopefully remove first ->list
and then the xattr handlers entirely, but until then this seems
like a step backwards.
