Shouldn't we note /sys/module/cifs/parameters/echo_retries in the message and the readme (since changing at runtime, e.g. to work around a server bug temporarily, is probably more common that at module install time). I will probably make a minor update to the readme to note this if it is not in the patch, but not sure about the printk.
