Merged nine of the client patches from this series into cifs-2.6.git
for-next. They looked safe. Good catch on fixing some of these
incorrect error definitions.

a691ac0cdd97 (HEAD -> for-next, origin/for-next) smb: move
file_notify_information to common/fscc.h
c0fd2fbe4f73 smb: move SMB2 Notify Action Flags into common/smb2pdu.h
787a2b803211 smb: move notify completion filter flags into common/smb2pdu.h
14a6f0e19fc7 smb/client: add parentheses to NT error code definitions
containing bitwise OR operator
1e4c7c9ab176 smb: add documentation references for smb2 change notify
definitions
833f0f46368f smb/client: add 4 NT error code definitions
3a0a34572269 smb/client: fix NT_STATUS_UNABLE_TO_FREE_VM value
954cbce76316 smb/client: fix NT_STATUS_DEVICE_DOOR_OPEN value
b9695d00b605 smb/client: fix NT_STATUS_NO_DATA_DETECTED value
3d99347a2e1a (linus/master, linus/HEAD) Merge tag
'v6.19-rc-part1-smb3-client-fixes' of
git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6
