Re: [PATCH v2 2/6] smb/server: fix return value of smb2_notify()

[ChenXiaoSong]

Hi Steve and Namjae,

https://chenxiaosong.com/en/smb2-change-notify.html

The link above is my analysis of the change notify feature, and my 
progress on developing this feature will be posted at this link. This 
link will remain permanently accessible.

I will complete the implementation of this feature as soon as possible.

Thanks,
ChenXiaoSong.
