Lock test 7 now passes and no more byte range lock kernel panic in
fs/locks.c (following Trond's suggestion) of changing to
posix_file_lock_wait call.
Also Includes fix to make allow cifs maximum pathnames to go to full
Linux MAX_PATH ie 4K if the server supports it (interestingly this seems
to expose minor samba bug as paths get over 2000 bytes or so).
Also returns more sensible error (EOPNOTSUPP) on attempts to set
date/time to old servers such as NT4 which only support level 1 and 2 of
SetPathInfo (will eventually add code to handle the backlevel infolevel
for setting date/time).
As usual at this stage of the release cycle, let me know ASAP if any
problems are found.
Steady progress in improving this code. Also notice Samba keeps
improving its support of cifs vfs - Samba 3.10 is a big improvement in a
few key areas.
