cifs: client: enforce consistent handling of multichannel and max_channels
Previously, the behavior of the multichannel and max_channels mount options was inconsistent and order-dependent. For example, specifying "multichannel,max_channels=1" would result in 2 channels, while "max_channels=1,multichannel" would result in 1 channel. Additionally, conflicting combinations such as "nomultichannel,max_channels=3" or "multichannel,max_channels=1" did not produce errors and could lead to unexpected channel counts. This commit introduces two new fields in smb3_fs_context to explicitly track whether multichannel and max_channels were specified during mount. The option parsing and validation logic is updated to ensure: - The outcome is no longer dependent on the order of options. - Conflicting combinations (e.g., "nomultichannel,max_channels=3" or "multichannel,max_channels=1") are detected and result in an error. - The number of channels created is consistent with the specified options. This improves the reliability and predictability of mount option handling for SMB3 multichannel support.
