do not treat non-symlink reparse points as valid symlinks
Windows 8 and later can create NFS symlinks (within reparse points) which we were assuming were normal NTFS symlinks and thus reporting corrupt paths for. Add check for reparse points to make sure that they really are normal symlinks before we try to parse the pathname. We also should not be parsing other types of reparse points (DFS junctions etc) as if they were a symlink so return EOPNOTSUPP on those. Also fix endian errors (we were not parsing symlink lengths as little endian). This fixes commit d244bf2d which implemented follow link for non-Unix CIFS mounts CC: Stable <stable@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Andrew Bartlett <abartlet@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>
