cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions:
1) if it's signaled
2) if there's a problem with session setup
3) if kthread_stop is called on it
The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread,
there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the
thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it.
One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after
kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem
setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the
loop.
This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all
three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop
is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since
we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being
signaled but before kthread_stop is called.
It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable
since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread
might never be shut down.

When creating a directory on a CIFS share without POSIX extensions,
and the given mode has no write bits set, set the ATTR_READONLY bit.
When creating a file, set ATTR_READONLY if the create mode has no write
bits set and we're not using unix extensions.
There are some comments about this being problematic due to the VFS
splitting creates into 2 parts. I'm not sure what that's actually
talking about, but I'm assuming that it has something to do with how
mknod is implemented. In the simple case where we have no unix
extensions and we're just creating a regular file, there's no reason
we can't set ATTR_READONLY.

Clean up cifs_setattr a bit by adding a local inode pointer, and
changing all of the direntry->d_inode references to it. This also adds a
bit of micro-optimization. d_inode shouldn't change over the life of
this function, so we only need to dereference it once.

Was a holdover from the old kernel_thread based cifsd
code. We needed to know that the thread had set the task variable
before proceeding. Now that kthread_run returns the new task, this
doesn't appear to be needed anymore.
As best I can tell, this sleep was intended to try to prevent
cifs_umount from freeing the cifsSesInfo struct before cifsd had
exited. Now that cifsd is using the kthread API, we know that
when kthread_stop returns that cifsd has exited, so I don't
think this is needed any longer.

When a share was in DFS and the server was Unix/Linux, we were sending paths of the form
\\server\share/dir/file
rather than
//server/share/dir/file
There was some discussion between me and jra over whether we should use
/server/share/dir/file
as MS sometimes says - but the documentation for this claims it should be
doubleslash for this type of UNC-like path format and that works, so leaving
it as doubleslash but converting the \ to / in the the //server/share portion.
This gets Samba to now correctly return STATUS_PATH_NOT_COVERED when it is
supposed to (Windows already did since the direction of the slash was not an issue
for them). Still need another minor change to fully enable DFS (need to finish
some chages to SMBGetDFSRefer

Shirish Pargaonkar noted:
With cifsacl mount option, when a file is created on the Windows server,
exclusive oplock is broken right away because the get cifs acl code
again opens the file to obtain security descriptor.
The client does not have the newly created file handle or inode in any
of its lists yet so it does not respond to oplock break and server waits for
its duration and then responds to the second open. This slows down file
creation signficantly. The fix is to pass the file descriptor to the get
cifsacl code wherever available so that get cifs acl code does not send
second open (NT Create ANDX) and oplock is not broken.

This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

Currently, when we get a prefixpath as part of mount, the kernel only
changes the first character to be a '/' or '\' depending on whether
posix extensions are enabled. This is problematic as it expects
mount.cifs to pass in the correct delimiter in the rest of the
prefixpath. But, mount.cifs may not know *what* the correct delimiter
is. It's a chicken and egg problem.
Note that mount.cifs should not do conversion of the
prefixpath - if we want posix behavior then '\' is legal in a path
(and we have had bugs in the distant path to prove to me that
customers sometimes have apps that require '\'). The kernel code
assumes that the path passed in is posix (and current code will handle
the first path component fine but was broken for Windows mounts
for "deep" prefixpaths unless the user specified a prefixpath with '\'
deep in it. So e.g. with current kernel code:
1) mount to //server/share/dir1 will work to all server types
2) mount to //server/share/dir1/subdir1 will work to Samba
3) mount to //server/share/dir1\\subdir1 will work to Windows
But case two would fail to Windows without the fix.
With the kernel cifs module fix case two now works.
