Sorry, forgot specifics:
Consider the following tree:
/srv/symtest
/srv/symtest/dir
/srv/symtest/dir/subdir/
/srv/symtest/link -> dir/
/srv/symtest/abslink -> /
this works:
# mount.cifs //smbsrv/symtest/dir/subdir/ /mnt/
this causes oops but worked before fec11dd9a0:
# mount.cifs //smbsrv/symtest/link/subdir/ /mnt/
this fails with ENOTDIR, both before fec11dd9a0 and after:
# mount.cifs //smbsrv/symtest/abslink/srv/symtest/dir/subdir/ /mnt/
