Fix regression introduced in pre-3.14 kernels by cherry-picking
aa07c713ecfc0522916f3cd57ac628ea6127c0ec
(NFSD: Call ->set_acl with a NULL ACL structure if no entries).

The affected code was removed in 3.14 by commit
4ac7249ea5a0ceef9f8269f63f33cc873c3fac61
(nfsd: use get_acl and ->set_acl).
The ->set_acl methods are already able to cope with a NULL argument.
