I just realised I missed that part : there is absolutely no way to
change an existing filesystem after the fact.
My previous answer was about the fact that by installing a modified
kernel module, there is a slight possibility that you can create a
NEW filesystem with more ACLs (and beware, this is untested,
unsupported, uncharted territory, "there be dragons" and al). Given that
the modified xfs module actually works, given that the mkfs.xfs and
other tools behave as expected (unlikely), and that the whole setup
won't fall down in flames the first time you actually create 26 ACLs on
a file, etc.
