smbfs in stable kernels.

A while ago I saw this patch on usenet to fix a problem in the stable
kernel series with smbfs. The problem is that, even with the Win95
bug work-around enabled, only 64 files are ever shown in a directory
listing, and the ones that disappear seems to be rather random. I
looked though the Documentation directory for the kernel, and the
smbfs code, but I couldn't find a maintainer. So, attached is a patch
to fix this problem. It turns out that there was a bug in the bug fix
(a misplaced "}"). If possible, could this be incorporated into the
main kernel source, as I see this problem on comp.protocols.smb. It
was created against 2.0.33, and applies cleanly against 2.0.34 and
2.0.35.
