== Precise SRU Justification ==
Due to this bug, dfs doesn't work where servers using package signing are mixed with servers which don't use package signing.  This bug was fixed by upstream commit 0b7bc84000d71f3647ca33ab1bf5bd928535c846.  It is in mainline as of v3.9-rc1.  

This commit has a requrement for commit 8830d7e07a5e38bc47650a7554b7c1cfd49902bf, so it does not apply cleanly to v3.2.  I performed a backport to avoid this requirement.

I sent a request for this backport to also be included in upstream 3.2:

== Fix ==
commit 0b7bc84000d71f3647ca33ab1bf5bd928535c846

    cifs: set MAY_SIGN when sec=krb5

== Test Case == 
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.  The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
