[ Upstream commit 5efdd9122eff772eae2feae9f0fc0ec02d4846a3 ]
Deferred close can be a very useful feature for allowing
caching data for read, and for minimizing the number of
reopens needed for a file that is repeatedly opened and
close but there are workloads where its default (1 second,
similar to actimeo/acregmax) is much too small.
Allow the user to configure the amount of time we can
defer sending the final smb3 close when we have a
handle lease on the file (rather than forcing it to depend
on value of actimeo which is often unrelated, and less safe).
Adds new mount parameter "closetimeo=" which is the maximum
number of seconds we can wait before sending an SMB3
close when we have a handle lease for it. Default value
also is set to slightly larger at 5 seconds (although some
other clients use larger default this should still help).

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.
