Pali Rohár 071b8a67a8 cifs: Add support for creating NFS-style symlinks
CIFS client is currently able to parse NFS-style symlinks, but is not able
to create them. This functionality is useful when the mounted SMB share is
used also by Windows NFS server (on Windows Server 2012 or new). It allows
interop of symlinks between SMB share mounted by Linux CIFS client and same
export from Windows NFS server mounted by some NFS client.

New symlinks would be created in NFS-style only in case the mount option
-o reparse=nfs is specified, which is not by default. So default CIFS
mounts are not affected by this change.

Linux kernel

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use make htmldocs or make pdfdocs. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
