Yet.

You should be able to have working ACLs on 9.1 using the kernel from
9.0. If your hardware requires a more recent kernel, there will
hopefully be updates for the 9.1 kernel that will have working ACLs, at
least on XFS. You will note that there is a patch for the current cooker
kernel to support XFS ACLs.

At present, 9.0 out-the-box with updates is probably a better choice for
samba serving than 9.1 out-the-box.
