From: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7420451f6a109f7f8f1bf283f34d08eba3259fb3 upstream.

allow disabling cifs (SMB1 ie vers=1.0) and vers=2.0 in the
config for the build of cifs.ko if want to always prevent mounting
with these less secure dialects.

+ Modern dialects, SMB2.1 and later (including SMB3 and 3.1.1), have
+ additional security features, including protection against
+ man-in-the-middle attacks and stronger crypto hashes, so the use

Modern CIFS servers including Samba and most Windows versions
