Subject: [PATCH] smb3: directory sync should not return an error
Git-commit: 6e70c267e68d77679534dcf4aaf84e66f2cf1425
Patch-mainline: v4.17-rc5
References: bsc#1051510, bsc#1144333
As with NFS, which ignores sync on directory handles,
fsync on a directory handle is a noop for CIFS/SMB3.
Do not return an error on it. It breaks some database
apps otherwise.
