CIFS: refactor cifs_get_inode_info()
Make logic of cifs_get_inode() much clearer by moving code to sub functions and adding comments. Document the steps this function does. cifs_get_inode_info() gets and updates a file inode metadata from its file path. * If caller already has raw info data from server they can pass it. * If inode already exists (just need to update) caller can pass it. Step 1: get raw data from server if none was passed Step 2: parse raw data into intermediate internal cifs_fattr struct Step 3: set fattr uniqueid which is later used for inode number. This can sometime be done from raw data Step 4: tweak fattr according to mount options (file_mode, acl to mode bits, uid, gid, etc) Step 5: update or create inode from final fattr struct * add is_smb1_server() helper * add is_inode_cache_good() helper * move SMB1-backupcreds-getinfo-retry to separate func cifs_backup_query_path_info(). * move set-uniqueid code to separate func cifs_set_fattr_ino() * don't clobber uniqueid from backup cred retry * fix some probable corner cases memleaks Signed-off-by: Aurelien Aptel <aaptel@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com>
