Message-ID: <2023121841-register-nutshell-9d6d@gregkh>
Due to many known bugfixes not being backported properly to the 5.15.y
kernel tree, the ksmbd code in this branch is just not safe to be used
at this point in time at all. So mark it as BROKEN so it will not be
used.
This can be changed in the future if all needed backports are made by
anyone who cares about this code in this stable kernel branch.
