[PATCH] Fix reiserfs deadlock

reiserfs_cache_default_acl() should return whether we successfully found
the acl or not.  We have to return correct value even if reiserfs_get_acl()
returns error code and not just 0.  Otherwise callers such as
reiserfs_mkdir() can unnecessarily lock the xattrs and later functions such
as reiserfs_new_inode() fail to notice that we have already taken the lock
and try to take it again with obvious consequences.
