XFS has a low limit on the number of entries in an ACL (about 20)

However, I don't know why you are getting the error 'Argument list too 
long' - I get 'Operation not permitted' when I try to and an entry that 
goes over the limit ...

I believe more recent versions of the XFS code support more ACL entries 
(may be more recent than that used by RHEL/CentOS 7 ?)
