This patch has CIFS look for a '%' in an IPv6 address. If one is
present then it will try to treat that value as a numeric interface
index suitable for stuffing into the sin6_scope_id field.
This should allow people to mount servers on IPv6 link-local addresses.

cifs: no need to use rcu_assign_pointer on immutable keys
Neither keytype in use by CIFS has an "update" method. This means that
the keys are immutable once instantiated. We don't need to use RCU
to set the payload data pointers.

We're given the datalen in the downcall, so there's no need to do any
calls to strlen(). Just keep track of the datalen in the key. Finally,
add a sanity check of the data in the downcall to make sure that it
looks like a real IP address.

Otherwise, we're leaking the payload memory.
