[CIFS] When file is deleted locally but later recreated on the server

fix cifs negative dentries so they are freed faster (not requiring
umount or readdir e.g.) so the client recognizes the new file on
the server more quickly.

------------
Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that file handle
Defer close of a file handle slightly if pending writes depend on that handle
(this reduces the EBADF bad file handle errors that can be logged under heavy
stress on writes). Modify cifs Kconfig options to expose CONFIG_CIFS_STATS2
Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the CIFS
Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian.
Fix SFU style symlinks and mknod needed for servers which do not support the
CIFS Unix Extensions. Fix setfacl/getfacl on bigendian. Timeout negative
dentries so files that the client sees as deleted but that later get created
on the server will be recognized.
