A reasonably common NAS server returns an error on the SetFSInfo of
the Unix capabilities. Log a message for this alerting the user
that the server may have problems with the Unix extensions,
and telling them what they can do to workaround it.
Unfortunately the server does not return other clues
that we could easily use to turn the Unix Extension support
off automatically in this case (since they claim to support it).

There is a small memory leak in fs/cifs/inode.c::cifs_mkdir().
Storage for 'pInfo' is allocated with kzalloc(), but if the call
to CIFSPOSIXCreate(...) happens to return 0 and pInfo->Type == -1,
then we'll jump to the 'mkdir_get_info' label without freeing the
storage allocated for 'pInfo'.
This patch adds a kfree() call to free the storage just before
jumping to the label, thus getting rid of the leak.

cifs reconnect could end up happening incorrectly due to
the small initial tcp recvmsg response. When the socket
was within three bytes of being full and the recvmsg
returned only 1 to 3 bytes of the initial 4 byte
read of the RFC1001 length field. Fortunately this
seems to be less common on more current kernels, but
this fixes it so cifs tries to retrieve all 4 bytes
of the initial tcp read.

On a mount without posix extensions enabled, when an unlock request is
made, the client can release more than is intended. To reproduce, on a
CIFS mount without posix extensions enabled:
1) open file
2) do fcntl lock: start=0 len=1
3) do fcntl lock: start=2 len=1
4) do fcntl unlock: start=0 len=1
...on the unlock call the client sends an unlock request to the server
for both locks. The problem is a bad test in cifs_lock.

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

It's common for file systems to need to zero data on either side of a
write, if a page is not Uptodate during prepare_write. It just so happens
that simple_prepare_write() in libfs.c does exactly that, so we can avoid
duplication and just call that function to zero page data.

nfsd is passing null nameidata (probably the only one doing that)

Note that running nfsd over a cifs mount requires specifying fsid on

Currently, if mount with a signing-enabled sec= option (e.g.
sec=ntlmi), the kernel does a warning printk if the server doesn't
support signing, and then proceeds without signatures.
This is probably OK for people that think to look at the ring buffer,
but seems wrong to me. If someone explicitly requests signing, we
should error out if that request can't be satisfied. They can then
reattempt the mount without signing if that's ok.

This patch makes CIFS honour a process' umask like other filesystems.
Of course the server is still free to munge the permissions if it wants
to; but the client will send the "right" permissions to begin with.
A few caveats:
1) It only applies to filesystems that have CAP_UNIX (aka support unix
extensions)
2) It applies the correct mode to the follow up CIFSSMBUnixSetPerms()
after remote creation
When mode to CIFS/NTFS ACL mapping is complete we can do the
same thing for that case for servers which do not
support the Unix Extensions.

There's a bug in win2k that when NT error codes are not negotiated, the

(currently) no way turn on signatures in such case, I had to force NT
error codes, so that this bug will not occur
