cifs: lower default and max wsize to what 2.6.39 can handle
This patch is intended for 2.6.39-stable kernels only and is needed to fix a regression introduced in 2.6.39. Prior to 2.6.39, when signing was enabled on a socket the client only sent single-page writes. This changed with commit ca83ce3d, which made signed and unsigned connections use the same codepaths for write calls. This caused a regression when working with windows servers. Windows machines will reject writes larger than the MaxBufferSize when signing is active, but do not clear the CAP_LARGE_WRITE_X flag in the protocol negotiation. The upshot is that when signing is active, windows servers often reject large writes from the client in 2.6.39. Because 3.0 adds support for larger wsize values, simply cherry picking the upstream patches that fix the wsize negotiation isn't sufficient to fix this issue. We also need to alter the maximum and default values to something suitable for 2.6.39. This patch also accounts for the change in field name from sec_mode to secMode that went into 3.0.
