When using multi-homed machines, it's nice to be able to specify
the local IP to use for outbound connections.  This patch gives
cifs the ability to bind to a particular IP address.

   Usage:  mount -t cifs -o srcaddr=2002::100:1,user=foo, ...

I tested IPv6 and IPv4 and it seems to work as designed.

checkpatch warns of a few long lines, but I saw no way to
break them up w/out adding even worse (IMO) cruft.  But,
I can change that if it's important.

Please let me know if any other changes are needed.

Thanks,
Ben
