Bharath SM dde6667fa3 smb: client: add drop_dir_cache module parameter to invalidate cached dirents
Add write-only /sys/module/cifs/parameters/drop_dir_cache. Writing a
non-zero value iterates all tcons and calls invalidate_all_cached_dirs()
to drop cached directory entries. This is useful to force a dirent cache
drop across mounts for debugging and testing purpose.

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.
