[PATCH v3 8/9] smb: client: block cache=ro and cache=singleclient on remount

[rajasimandalos]

From: Rajasi Mandal <rajasimandal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

cache=ro and cache=singleclient are mount-time environment declarations
where the admin promises that the share is read-only or exclusively
accessed.  The client bypasses server-based coherency (oplocks/leases)
and caches aggressively based on this promise.

These modes were intentionally excluded from smb3_update_mnt_flags()
when it was introduced in commit 2d39f50c2b15 ("cifs: move update of
flags into a separate function") — only cache=strict, cache=none and
cache=loose were made reconfigurable.  However, remount currently
silently accepts cache=ro and cache=singleclient without actually
applying them, which is confusing.

Add explicit checks in smb3_verify_reconfigure_ctx() to reject
attempts to change these options during remount with a clear error
message.
