Commit 786534b92f3c introduced a regression that caused listxattr to
return the POSIX ACL attribute names even though sysfs doesn't support
POSIX ACLs. This happens because simple_xattr_list checks for NULL
i_acl / i_default_acl, but inode_init_always initializes those fields to
ACL_NOT_CACHED ((void *)-1). For example:
$ getfattr -m- -d /sys
/sys: system.posix_acl_access: Operation not supported
/sys: system.posix_acl_default: Operation not supported
Fix this in simple_xattr_list by checking if the filesystem supports
POSIX ACLs.
Fixes: 786534b92f3c ("tmpfs: listxattr should include POSIX ACL xattrs")
