In some cases, when password2 becomes the working password, the client swaps the two password fields in the root session struct, but not in the smb3_fs_context struct in cifs_sb. DFS automounts inherit fs context from their parent mounts. Therefore, they might end up getting the passwords in the stale order. The automount should succeed, because the mount function will end up retrying with the actual password anyway. But to reduce these unnecessary session setup retries for automounts, we can sync the parent context's passwords with the root session's passwords before duplicating it to the child's fs context.

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 reStructuredText 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.
