CIFS kernel module parameters
=============================
These module parameters can be specified or modified either during the time of
module loading or during the runtime by using the interface
/proc/module/cifs/parameters/<param>

i.e. echo "value" > /proc/module/cifs/parameters/<param>

1. echo_retries - The number of echo attempts before giving up and
reconnecting to the server. The default is 5. The value 0
means never reconnect.

2. enable_oplocks - Enable or disable oplocks. Oplocks are enabled by default.
[Y/y/1]. To disable use any of [N/n/0].
