Subject: [PATCH v2 1/9] smb/client: reduce loop count in map_smb2_to_linux_error() by half

From: ChenXiaoSong <chenxiaosong@...inos.cn>

The smb2_error_map_table array currently has 1743 elements. When searching
for the last element and calling smb2_print_status(), 3486 comparisons
are needed.

The loop in smb2_print_status() is unnecessary, smb2_print_status() can be
removed, and only iterate over the array once, printing the message when
the target status code is found.
