Linux SMB client currently creates NFS-style char and block devices with swapped major and minor numbers. Per MS-FSCC 2.1.2.6 NFS_SPECFILE_CHR and NFS_SPECFILE_BLK DataBuffer's field contains two 32-bit integers that represent major and minor device numbers. So the first one 32-bit integer in DataBuffer is major number and second one in DataBuffer is minor number. Microsoft Windows NFS server reads them in this order too. But Linux CIFS client creates new reparse point DataBuffer with minor number first and major number second. Fix this problem in Linux SMB client and puts major and minor number in the correct order into DataBuffer. This change fixes interoperability of char and block devices on Windows share which is exported over both SMB and NFS protocols.
