Miklos, Christian, I decided this was easy enough to fix with a generic helper without duplicating code, so we'd better fix it while 6.5.y is still taking fixed. It looks like smb3_fs_context_parse_monolithic() could also use the generic helper, but it is not a straight forward change, so I will leave that to smb client developers. Thanks, Amir.
