[PATCH v20 09/23] richacl: Permission check algorithm

[Andreas Gruenbacher]

A richacl roughly grants a requested access if the NFSv4 acl in the
richacl grants the requested permissions according to the NFSv4
permission check algorithm and the file mask that applies to the process
includes the requested permissions.
