We've seen cases where people passed negative numbers to
posix_acl_alloc() and we fixed the caller. For example 093019cf1b "xfs:
fix acl count validation in xfs_acl_from_disk()". But there are other
places which might be affected like ext4_acl_from_disk() which checks
for negative but doesn't check an upper limit.
