[ Upstream commit 45e724022e2704b5a5193fd96f378822b0448e07 ] Handle all file types in NFS reparse points as specified in MS-FSCC 2.1.2.6 Network File System (NFS) Reparse Data Buffer. The client is now able to set all file types based on the parsed NFS reparse point, which used to support only symlinks. This works for SMB1+.

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.
