Wang Zhaolong a091d9711b smb:client: smb: client: Add reverse mapping from tcon to superblocks
Currently, when a SMB connection is reset and renegotiated with the
server, there's no way to update all related mount points with new
negotiated sizes. This is because while superblocks (cifs_sb_info)
maintain references to tree connections (tcon) through tcon_link
structures, there is no reverse mapping from a tcon back to all the
superblocks using it.

This patch adds a bidirectional relationship between tcon and
cifs_sb_info structures by:

1. Adding a cifs_sb_list to tcon structure with appropriate locking
2. Adding tcon_sb_link to cifs_sb_info to join the list
3. Managing the list entries during mount and umount operations

The bidirectional relationship enables future functionality to locate and
update all superblocks connected to a specific tree connection, such as:

- Updating negotiated parameters after reconnection
- Efficiently notifying all affected mounts of capability changes

This is the first part of a series to improve connection resilience
by keeping all mount parameters in sync with server capabilities
after reconnection.

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.
