quickly browsing over the code, shouldn't it be:

diff --git a/fs/nfsd/nfs4acl.c b/fs/nfsd/nfs4acl.c
index b6ed383..54b8b41 100644

alloc = sizeof(struct posix_ace_state_array)
- + cnt*sizeof(struct posix_ace_state);
+ + cnt*sizeof(struct posix_user_ace_state);
state->users = kzalloc(alloc, GFP_KERNEL);
if (!state->users)
return -ENOMEM;
