  smb: client: increase number of PDUs allowed in a compound request
(2024-02-01 12:15:51 -0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Five smb3 client fixes, mostly multichannel related
- four multichannel fixes including fix for channel allocation when
multiple inactive channels, fix for unneeded race in channel
deallocation, correct redundant channel scaling, and redundant
multichannel disabling scenarios
- add warning if max compound requests reached

This does not include some additional important fixes being tested for
deferred close (on delete) and lease key reuse, and the password
rotation fix (since making some minor changes to these).  There is
also a larger patch series not included that improves special files
and symlink support and improves reparse point handling (from Paulo)
that looks reasonably low risk but is larger so is not included.  I am
ok with sending that series earlier than 6.9-rc if requested.

      cifs: make sure that channel scaling is done only once
      cifs: avoid redundant calls to disable multichannel
      cifs: do not search for channel if server is terminating
      cifs: failure to add channel on iface should bump up weight
