Isn't that physical contiguous allocator? wouldn't a virtual contiguous 
be good enough for the acl?

XFS_ACL_MAX_ENTRIES(mp)  == (65536 - 4) / 12 == 5461

XFS_ACL_SIZE(mp) == (4 + 12) + 12 * ((64K - 4) / 12) == 65548

Did you want to add in the sizeof(struct xfs_acl) to the first term or 
the sizeof(__be32)? I would think the acl_entry[0] is the start of the 
array.

--Mark.
