I mean cifspdu.h and smb2pdu.h. use CamelCase for all packet definitions. For example another one in smb2pdu.h:
struct smb2_negotiate_rsp {
        struct smb2_hdr hdr;
        __le16 StructureSize;   /* Must be 65 */
        __le16 SecurityMode;
        __le16 DialectRevision;
        __le16 NegotiateContextCount;   /* Prior to SMB3.1.1 was Reserved & MBZ */
        __u8   ServerGUID[16];
        __le32 Capabilities;
        __le32 MaxTransactSize;
        __le32 MaxReadSize;
        __le32 MaxWriteSize;
        __le64 SystemTime;      /* MBZ */
        __le64 ServerStartTime;
        __le16 SecurityBufferOffset;
        __le16 SecurityBufferLength;
        __le32 NegotiateContextOffset;  /* Pre:SMB3.1.1 was reserved/ignored */
        __u8   Buffer[1];       /* variable length GSS security buffer */
} __packed;

We may want to change them all together to keep naming consistent, that's a lot of changes.
