In mainline, by the commit
	549c7297717c3 2021-01-24 fs: make helpers idmap mount aware
and its series, a new parameter 'user_ns' was added to some inode
operations.  Aufs simply follows it, but it is still testing.

When a branch filesystem doesn't cache ACL, aufs should not cache
either.  Until now aufs has never met such fs, but theoretically it
could happen.  Actually, in linux-v5.1-rc1, NFSv3 changed its behaviour
by the commit
	ded52fbe7020 2019-02-20 nfs: fix xfstest generic/099 failed on nfsv3
The commit ded52fbe7020 doesn't "forget" the previous acl though.
Doesn't it mean that the obsoleted acl is kept until NFS's attribute
cache is expired?  I don't know.  I've asked it on LKML, but got no
answer.

Support for XATTR and ACL including several branch attributes to ignore
the copy error around XATTR and ACL.

NFS always sets MS_POSIXACL regardless its mount option 'noacl.'
When MS_POSIXACL is set, generic_permission() calls check_acl() (via
acl_permission_check()) and gets -EOPNOTSUPP because the NFS branch is
mounted as 'noacl.'
In aufs, h_permission() should not call generic_permission() in this
case.
The similar thing happens in coping-up XATTR. vfs_getxattr_alloc()
returns -EOPNOTSUPP.
