Looks fine to me.

I wouldn't have noticed the typo that Tom Talpey mentioned (misspelled
"common" in the commit message of the first patch), and that
SMB_CLIENT config variable is odd.

I'm actually surprised that Kconfig didn't complain about the

        select SMB_CLIENT

when there is no actual declaration of that Kconfig variable, just a random use.

That thing seems confusing and confused, and isn't related to the
renaming, so please drop the new random SMB_CLIENT config variable. If
you want to introduce a new Kconfig variable later for some reason,
that's fine, but please don't mix those kinds of changes up with pure
renames..
