Steve, Paulo, I think that fixing this part of he code has higher
priority than any other my patches as since commit ea41367b2a60 ("smb:
client: introduce SMB2_OP_QUERY_WSL_EA") Linux CIFS client is not able
to fetch & recognize any reparse points from servers without EAs support
and also from servers which do not support reparse points and EAs
together, which are all non-recent Windows SMB servers.
