I agree that is not good. I do really remember that I give it some
testing before send it to the list and I am not sure how it could
happen - guess that I gave it wrong testing or smth like that - sorry
about it.

I will provide new patches for kernel and mount.cifs that fix this problem.

Steve, can you remove this version of the patch from your tree or
revert it, please?
