[CIFS] Fix hang in find_writable_file

Browse source 
Caused by unneeded reopen during reconnect while spinlock held.

Thanks to Lin Feng Shen for testing this, and Amit Arora for
some nice problem determination to narrow this down.

Fix NTLMv2 signing. NFS server mounted over cifs works (if cifs mount is
done with "serverino" mount option). Add support for POSIX Unlink
(helps with certain sharing violation cases when server such as
Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions).
Samba supports newer POSIX CIFS Protocol Extensions). Add "nounix"
mount option to allow disabling the CIFS Unix Extensions for just
that mount. Fix hang on spinlock in find_writable_file (race when
reopening file after session crash).

noposixpaths If CIFS Unix extensions are supported, do not request
posix path name support (this may cause servers to

nounix Disable the CIFS Unix Extensions for this mount (tree
connection). This is rarely needed, but it may be useful
in order to turn off multiple settings all at once (ie
posix acls, posix locks, posix paths, symlink support
and retrieving uids/gids/mode from the server) or to
work around a bug in server which implement the Unix
Extensions.

This is necessary for certain applications that break
