Bug Description
16.04 x64 with 4.4.0-112 or 4.4.0-116 - cannot traverse a DFS link for a cifs.mount from windows if vers is anything other than 1.0 default. (This submission was from a 112 host, but it's confirmed to still exist on anything less than 4.11.)
Fix exists in 4.13.x in Ubuntu 18.x and works fine.
Issue is that once you mount with vers=2 or greater, you cannot traverse the dfs root directory to any file server, and you cannot mount the dfs path directly - only a direct mount to the backend fileservers will work.
Requesting a backport of the fix as described below as this makes it impossible to move forward with security action disabling SMB1 on our windows environment. If we do that now, will be unable to use that storage from all of our windows systems without directly mapping to individual file servers.

Aurelien Aptel (3):
CIFS: set SERVER_NAME_LENGTH to serverName actual size
CIFS: make IPC a regular tcon
CIFS: use tcon_ipc instead of use_ipc parameter from SMB2_ioctl
It's unclear if this should be treated as a security issue since it's not directly a security problem itself, but rather prevents taking security related action.
