Subject: [linus:master] [smb]  55c7788c37:  filebench.sum_operations/s -5.8%
 regression



Hello,

kernel test robot noticed a -5.8% regression of filebench.sum_operations/s on:


commit: 55c7788c37242702868bfac7861cdf0c358d6c3d ("smb: client: set correct d_type for reparse points under DFS mounts")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

testcase: filebench
test machine: 128 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8358 CPU @ 2.60GHz (Ice Lake) with 128G memory
parameters:

	disk: 1HDD
	fs: xfs
	fs2: cifs
	test: listdirs.f
	cpufreq_governor: performance




If you fix the issue in a separate patch/commit (i.e. not just a new version of
the same patch/commit), kindly add following tags
