Add new mount option "signloosely" which enables signing but skips the sometimes expensive signing checks in the responses (signatures are calculated and sent correctly in the SMB2/SMB3 requests even with this mount option but skipped in the responses). Although weaker for security (and also data integrity in case a packet were corrupted), this can provide enough of a performance benefit (calculating the signature to verify a packet can be expensive especially for large packets) to be useful in some cases.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
