Hello,
I would like to propose backporting these two commits into stable:
* 663f295e3559 ("smb: client: fix parsing of device numbers")
* a9de67336a4a ("smb: client: set correct device number on nfs reparse points")
Linux SMB client without these two recent fixes swaps device major and
minor numbers, which makes basically char/block device nodes unusable.
Commit 663f295e3559 ("smb: client: fix parsing of device numbers")
should have had following Fixes line:
Fixes: 45e724022e27 ("smb: client: set correct file type from NFS reparse points")
And commit a9de67336a4a ("smb: client: set correct device number on nfs
reparse points") should have contained line:
Fixes: 102466f303ff ("smb: client: allow creating special files via reparse points")

Hello Greg and Sasha, do you have any opinion about this?
