[CIFS] NTLMSSP reenabled after move from connect.c to sess.c
The NTLMSSP code was removed from fs/cifs/connect.c and merged
(75% smaller, cleaner) into fs/cifs/sess.c
As with the old code it requires that cifs be built with
CONFIG_CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL, the /proc/fs/cifs/Experimental flag
must be set to 2, and mount must turn on extended security
(e.g. with sec=krb5).
Although NTLMSSP encapsulated in SPNEGO is not enabled yet,
"raw" ntlmssp is common and useful in some cases since it
offers more complete security negotiation, and is the
default way of negotiating security for many Windows systems.
SPNEGO encapsulated NTLMSSP will be able to reuse the same
code.
