cifs: cache FILE_ALL_INFO for the shared root handle When we open the shared root handle also ask for FILE_ALL_INFORMATION since we can do this at zero cost as part of a compound. Cache this information as long as the lease is held and return and serve any future requests from cache. This allows us to serve "stat /<mountpoint>" directly from cache and avoid a network roundtrip. Since clients often want to do this quite a lot this improve performance slightly. As an example: xfstest generic/533 performs 43 stat operations on the root of the share while it is run. Which are eliminated with this patch.
