It's an external module, that OpenWRT folks build with !FS_POSIX_ACL.
It compiles just fine, but modprobe fails because there are several
exported ACL symbols that don't provide dummy definitions (which the
module in question didn't guard with ifdef-s).

ifdef-s work. But since posix_acl.h already provides some dummy
definitions for exported symbols, I thought that that list can
be extended (become complete).
