Sounds like a good idea, yes. Of course, if we really want to do this
regardless CONFIG_CIFS_DFS_UPCALL, it would probably be better off doing
it in a separate series.

The previous version only made sure to not share tcp servers among DFS
shares, however, we must do it for all shares when we have
CONFIG_CIFS_DFS_UPCALL option enabled.
Without this change, the following would occur:
mount //dfsroot/dfs (new tcp)
mount //dfsroot/share (reuse tcp because
rc = mount_get_conns(ctx, cifs_sb, &xid, &server, &ses, &tcon);
/*
* If called with 'nodfs' mount option, then skip DFS resolving. Otherwise unconditionally
* try to get an DFS referral (even cached) to determine whether it is an DFS mount.
*
* Skip prefix path to provide support for DFS referrals from w2k8 servers which don't seem
* to respond with PATH_NOT_COVERED to requests that include the prefix.
*/
if ((cifs_sb->mnt_cifs_flags & CIFS_MOUNT_NO_DFS) ||
dfs_cache_find(xid, ses, cifs_sb->local_nls, cifs_remap(cifs_sb), ctx->UNC + 1, NULL,
NULL)) {
if (rc)
goto error;
/* Check if it is fully accessible and then mount it */
rc = is_path_remote(cifs_sb, ctx, xid, server, tcon);
if (!rc)
goto out;
if (rc != -EREMOTE)
goto error;
}
would get executed in cifs_mount() and we only set nosharesock after that)
With this patch:
mount //dfsroot/dfs (new tcp)
mount //dfsroot/share (new tcp)
