5f3a4a28ec userns: Pass a userns parameter into posix_acl_to_xattr and posix_acl_from_xattr
- Pass the user namespace the uid and gid values in the xattr are stored
   in into posix_acl_from_xattr.

 - Pass the user namespace kuid and kgid values should be converted into
   when storing uid and gid values in an xattr in posix_acl_to_xattr.

- Modify all callers of posix_acl_from_xattr and posix_acl_to_xattr to
  pass in &init_user_ns.

In the short term this change is not strictly needed but it makes the
code clearer.  In the longer term this change is necessary to be able to
mount filesystems outside of the initial user namespace that natively
store posix acls in the linux xattr format.

2f6f0654ab userns: Convert vfs posix_acl support to use kuids and kgids
- In setxattr if we are setting a posix acl convert uids and gids from
  the current user namespace into the initial user namespace, before
  the xattrs are passed to the underlying filesystem.

  Untranslatable uids and gids are represented as -1 which
  posix_acl_from_xattr will represent as INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID.
  posix_acl_valid will fail if an acl from userspace has any
  INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID values.  In net this guarantees that
  untranslatable posix acls will not be stored by filesystems.

- In getxattr if we are reading a posix acl convert uids and gids from
  the initial user namespace into the current user namespace.

  Uids and gids that can not be tranlsated into the current user namespace
  will be represented as -1.

- Replace e_id in struct posix_acl_entry with an anymouns union of
  e_uid and e_gid.  For the short term retain the e_id field
  until all of the users are converted.

- Don't set struct posix_acl.e_id in the cases where the acl type
  does not use e_id.  Greatly reducing the use of ACL_UNDEFINED_ID.

- Rework the ordering checks in posix_acl_valid so that I use kuid_t
  and kgid_t types throughout the code, and so that I don't need
  arithmetic on uid and gid types.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
