[linux-cifs-client] problems accessing winxp shares with directory links inside

[Erik Latoshek]

when mounting winxp sp2 shares on linux client, client is unable to 
access directories inside share which are actually links(created by 
alt+F6 in Far Manager) on windows machine.
cifs returns something like unable to acess symlink target.
knowing that smbfs in this case is working fine, i just removed all 
S_IFLNK code inside cifs kernel source tree with successfull results.

for example, file.c:
        if (pfindData->ExtFileAttributes & ATTR_REPARSE) {
                 *pobject_type = DT_LNK;
                 /* BB can this and S_IFREG or S_IFDIR be set as in 
Windows? */
                 tmp_inode->i_mode |= S_IFLNK;
         } else if (pfindData->ExtFileAttributes & ATTR_DIRECTORY) {
                 *pobject_type = DT_DIR;
                 /* override default perms since we do not lock dirs */

i removed first if clause, as i believe windows is returning 
simultaneously ATTR_REPARSE | ATTR_DIRECTORY but cifs does not handle 
such situations.
