[PATCH 1/2] cifs: Do not issue SMB2 CREATE always with FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES

[Pali Rohár]

Not all SMB2 operations require FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES access and therefore
do not automatically request for FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES access in every one
SMB2 CREATE command.

This change allows to complete WRITE operation to a file when it does not
grant FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES permission and its parent directory does not
grant READ_DATA permission (parent directory READ_DATA is implicit grant of
child FILE_READ_ATTRIBUTES permission).
