[linux-cifs-client] [PATCH 0/5] cifs: various patches for 2.6.29

This series represents some low-priority patches that I'd like to see
considered for 2.6.29. They should be relatively independent of one
another. While there's no hurry for them, there's some other work I'm
doing that is based on these patches, so timely review would be
appreciated.

The main caveat with these patches is that there appears to be some work
in linux-next to change the NIPQUAD/NIP6 stuff to a new type of sprintf
formatting arg. These patches may need modification if that gets taken
into 2.6.29. It should be fairly straightforward to fix though.

Jeff Layton (5):
  cifs: no need to use rcu_assign_pointer on immutable keys
  cifs: remove unused SMB session pointer from struct mid_q_entry
  cifs: account for IPv6 in ses->serverName and clean up netbios name
    handling
  cifs: display addr and prefixpath options in /proc/mounts
  cifs: take module reference when starting cifsd
