[cifs-protocol] Handling of STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW on SMB_COM_READ_ANDX

Hi,

I need some help regarding the interaction of STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW and
chained SMB requests.

For SMB_COM_READ_ANDX requests on named pipes it can happen that
the server has to return STATUS_BUFFER_OVERFLOW (see MS-CIFS 3.3.5.35
Receiving an SMB_COM_READ_ANDX Request).

Are chained requests possible in this case?

As there's only one status field for all requests in the chain,
it's not clear how a server should handle such a situation.
