From: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 53923e0fe2098f90f339510aeaa0e1413ae99a16 upstream. When mounting with SMB2.1 or earlier, even with nomultichannel, we log the confusing warning message: "CIFS: VFS: multichannel is not supported on this protocol version, use 3.0 or above" Fix this so that we don't log this unless they really are trying to mount with multichannel.
