Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 4/6] cifs: Fix parsing native symlinks directory/file
type
I see what you mean. The last check in smb2_fix_symlink_target_type
will disallow to use symlinks to "." and ".." created by older linux
client as it created it as symlink to file, instead of symlink to dir.
This is a good point. I can send a new version with dropped last check
in smb2_fix_symlink_target_type.
