added RB for you for this and for "cifs: Fix encryption of cleared,
but unset rq_iter ..."

Let me know if any more RB or Acked-by for the other 11 in for-next

fce2374a6ce1 (HEAD -> for-next) smb3: fix caching of ctime on setxattr
8cc431e2afba smb3: more minor cleanups for session handling routines
2828c39da33f smb3: minor cleanup of session handling code
e8c286d1fb82 cifs: update internal module version number for cifs.ko
a25ebba8a4f2 smb3: minor RDMA cleanup
091578169aa4 cifs: handle when server stops supporting multichannel
a340e7145da5 cifs: handle when server starts supporting multichannel
693358495264 cifs: reconnect work should have reference on server struct
e935ee282ccf cifs: do not pass cifs_sb when trying to add channels
4266585b23f4 cifs: account for primary channel in the interface list
6dbc7a50c5e4 cifs: distribute channels across interfaces based on speed
44a65e388107 cifs: handle cases where a channel is closed
37de5a80e932 cifs: Fix encryption of cleared, but unset rq_iter data buffers

Am trying to work on a few patches today (e.g. caching root handle
across mount when no dir leases support to reduce open and close)
and how we might save off an "altpassword" when servers do "key
rotation" (where you move from one password to another but don't want
to risk sessions going down for a while for that user). Let me know
if any patches/features for you in next few days of merge window
