Re: cifs: Fix inability to write files >2GB to SMB2/3 shares (THISTIME I GOT IT RIGHT, PROMISE!)

[Steve French]

Looks good.

Will plan to merge into cifs-2..6.git soon.

Probably should also go to stable kernels

This is due to cap_large_files bit being different for SMB1 and SMB2/3 (where it is just an internal flag that is not negotiated and the SMB1 one corresponds to multichannel capability, so maybe LFS works correctly if server sends 0x08 flag) while capabilities are checked always for the SMB1 bit in cifs_read_super().
