[linux-cifs-client] [PATCH] cifs.upcall: bump SPNEGO msg version
number and don't reject old versions

When we added the ability for the kernel to send sec=mskrb5 to the
upcall, we subtly broke old cifs.upcall versions that don't understand
it. Bump the spnego message version to 2 to make this clear. Also,
change cifs.upcall to not reject requests with a version that's lower
than the current one. The idea is to try and keep cifs.upcall backward
compatible with old kernels.
