cifs: refactor create_sd_buf() and and avoid corrupting the buffer
When mounting with "idsfromsid" mount option, Azure corrupted the owner SIDs due to excessive padding caused by placing the owner fields at the end of the security descriptor on create. Placing owners at the front of the security descriptor (rather than the end) is also safer, as the number of ACEs (that follow it) are variable.

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.
