From: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 518549c120e671c4906f77d1802b97e9b23f673a upstream. When running fstest generic/423 with sfu mount option, it was being skipped due to inability to create sockets: generic/423 [not run] cifs does not support mknod/mkfifo which can also be easily reproduced with their af_unix tool: ./src/af_unix /mnt1/socket-two bind: Operation not permitted Fix sfu mount option to allow creating and reporting sockets.
