[CIFS] cifs export operations
For nfsd to work over cifs mounts (which presumably makes sense when trying to reexport mounts to windows, network appliances or Samba servers to nfs clients via nfs server). This is the first stage of that enablement, marked experimental and turned off by default. Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
