Sounds good. I've rebased and attached a patchset that contains the
following commits:

  build: Move nfs4acl to the top level
  vfs: Add vfs_handle_struct argument to smb_set_nt_acl_nfs4 and the callback
  vfs: Allocate SMB4ACL_T on an explict memory context
  vfs: Fix compile of vfs_gpfs.c.
  vfs: Remove unused security_info argument in vfz_zfsacl.c
  vfs: Fix missing TALLOC_CTX argument in vfs_zfsacl on blocking functions
  vfs: Add new VFS module vfs_nfs4acl_xattr to use nfs4acl.idl
  librpc: Add special owner/group/other constants to nfs4acl.idl
  selftest: Run raw.acls test against the nfs4acl_xattr module
  vfs: Add inheritance emulation to vfs_nfs4acl_xattr.
  s4-smbtorture: Set result message when failing the inheritance test.

With kind regards,
Alexander Werth
