'mkdir -p foo/bar' fails on CIFS share

[Anders Karlsson]

Hi there,

Observed behaviour on a share mounted from a Samba server (3.0.23c) and
CIFS client 1.46 on a FC6 system;

mkdir -p foo/bar                       FAIL, but creates 'foo'
mkdir foo foo/bar                      FAIL, but creates 'foo'
mkdir foo ; mkdir foo/bar              FAIL, but creates 'foo'
mkdir foo ; sleep 1 ; mkdir foo/bar    SUCCESS

The FAILs return -EACCES on the mkdir call for foo/bar and a -ENOENT on
foo/bar for a stat64 call as well. Is this expected behaviour, or is
there a client (or server) problem here?

Thanks!
