Add support for creating special files (e.g. char/block devices, sockets, fifos) via NFS reparse points on SMB2+, which are fully supported by most SMB servers and documented in MS-FSCC. smb2_get_reparse_inode() creates the file with a corresponding reparse point buffer set in @iov through a single roundtrip to the server.

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 Restructured Text 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.
