    CIFS: Add rwpidforward mount option · d4ffff1f
    Pavel Shilovsky authored
    Add rwpidforward mount option that switches on a mode when we forward
    pid of a process who opened a file to any read and write operation.
    
    This can prevent applications like WINE from failing on read or write
    operation on a previously locked file region from the same netfd from
    another process if we use mandatory brlock style.
    
    It is actual for WINE because during a run of WINE program two processes
    work on the same netfd - share the same file struct between several VFS
    fds:
    1) WINE-server does open and lock;
    2) WINE-application does read and write.
