Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple
handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.
Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
e.g. cifs.

We need to get the parent directories acls and let the new child inherit it.
To this, we add additional calculations for data/metadata allocation.

This patch adds POSIX ACL(access control lists) APIs in ocfs2. We convert
struct posix_acl to many ocfs2_acl_entry and regard them as an extended
attribute entry.
