I am currently reviewing the patchset.
And it looks good.

I am only wondering about the (sneaked in) change for thei
iosize command:

Originally 0x400 -- 0xFFFF00 was allowed.
Now suddenly 0 -- 0xFFFF00 is allowed.
with 0 meaning server controlled.
Can it be that any x with 0 < x < 0x400
is mapped to 0x400 (the original minimum)
implicitly?

And in the manpage, only the SMB1 limit
is described, not the (lack of) limit in
the SMB2+ case.

I'll do more testing and will follow up later..

Cheers - Michael
