Samba (version 3) server support for this is also currently being
done. This client code is in an experimental path (requires enabling
/proc/fs/cifs/Experimental) while it is being tested.

The cifs session setup code has three cases, and a fourth for backlevel
LANMAN2 style session setup needed to be added. This new session setup
implmentation will eventually replace the other three and should be
easier to read while fixing a few minor problems (not setting
the LARGE READ/WRITEX flags when NTLMSSP was negotiated for example) and
adding support for NTLMv2 (which will be added with the next patch. In the
meantime, this code is marked in an CONFIG_CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL block and will
not be turned on by default until it is tested against more server types.

Following Shaggy's suggestion, do a better job on the unicode string
handling routines in cifs in specifying that the wchar_t are really
little endian widechars (__le16).

help the server by upping the typical write size from 4K to 16K
(or even larger if wsize set explicitly) for servers which support this.
