Merge tag '5.4-smb3-fixes' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6

Pull cifs updates from Steve French:
 "Various cifs/smb3 fixes (including for share deleted cases) and
  features including improved encrypted read performance, and various
  debugging improvements.

  Note that since I am at a test event this week with the Samba team,
  and at the annual Storage Developer Conference/SMB3 Plugfest test
  event next week a higher than usual number of fixes is expected later
  next week as other features in progress get additional testing and
  review during these two events"

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
