cifs: client: allow changing multichannel mount options on remount
Previously, the client did not update a session's channel state when
multichannel or max_channels mount options were changed via remount.
This led to inconsistent behavior and prevented enabling or disabling
multichannel support without a full unmount/remount cycle.
Enable dynamic reconfiguration of multichannel and max_channels during
remount by:
- Introducing smb3_sync_ses_chan_max(), a centralized function for
channel updates which synchronizes the session's channels with the
updated configuration.
- Replacing cifs_disable_secondary_channels() with
cifs_decrease_secondary_channels(), which accepts a disable_mchan
flag to support multichannel disable when the server stops supporting
multichannel.
- Updating remount logic to detect changes in multichannel or
max_channels and trigger appropriate session/channel updates.
Current limitation:
- The query_interfaces worker runs even when max_channels=1 so that
multichannel can be enabled later via remount without requiring an
unmount. This is a temporary approach and may be refined in the
future.
Users can safely modify multichannel and max_channels on an existing
mount. The client will correctly adjust the session's channel state to
match the new configuration, preserving durability where possible and
avoiding unnecessary disconnects.
