NBT length parameter larger than necessary in session request

Hi guys,

Ever notice smbclient sends an NBT session request with an NBT length
field that is 4 bytes longer than necessary? No harm, but is there a
reason for this?

I'm using 2.2.1a shipped with RH connecting to the same version of Samba
over loopback.
