Ubuntu 10.04 (and possibly earlier releases) requires POSIX ACL support for some /dev nodes. For example:

cndougla@mini:~/Canonical/ubuntu-lucid$ getfacl /dev/dsp
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: dev/dsp
# owner: root
# group: audio
user::rw-
user:cndougla:rw-
group::rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

I know that at least sound is broken without CONFIG_TMPFS_POSIX_ACL=y, so we need to enforce it for all flavours.
