3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steve French stfrench@microsoft.com
commit 1e77a8c204c9d1b655c61751b8ad0fde22421dbb upstream.
If backupuid mount option is sent, we can incorrectly retry (on access denied on query info) with a cifs (FindFirst) operation on an smb3 mount which causes the server to force the session close.
We set backup intent on open so no need for this fallback.
See kernel bugzilla 201435
