code looks correct but I have a comment:

so the patch adds the check like this:

	clc_len = smb2_calc_size(hdr);

	if (shdr->Command == SMB2_NEGOTIATE)
		clc_len += get_neg_ctxt_len(hdr, len, clc_len);

but it might be cleaner to just fix the path that computes the size in
smb2_calc_size():

  smb2_calc_size()
    smb2_get_data_area()
      case SMB2_NEGOTIATE:
          *off = le16_to_cpu(
              ((struct smb2_negotiate_rsp *)hdr)->SecurityBufferOffset);
          *len = le16_to_cpu(
              ((struct smb2_negotiate_rsp *)hdr)->SecurityBufferLength);
          /*** PATCH HERE *****/
          break;

I think we could set off and len to the negctx off and len instead of the gss if
using 3.11.

you can do less debug checks than with your patch given the clc_len isnt
computed yet but I think it would be cleaner.

Cheers,
