I think the best would be to avoid asn1 completely in the kernel
and do the whole authentication in userspace.

The kernel can only deal this blobs here, I don't there's need to
look inside the blobs.

1. ksmbd-mount would provide a fixed initial blob that's always
   the same and will be returned in the
   "2.2.4 SMB2 NEGOTIATE Response" PDU as SecurityBuffer

2. The kernel just blindly forwards the SecurityBuffer
   of "2.2.5 SMB2 SESSION_SETUP Request" to userspace
   together with the client provided SessionId (from
   2.2.1.2 SMB2 Packet Header - SYNC) as well as
   negotiated signing and encryption algorithm ids
   and the latest preauth hash.

3. Userspace passes a NTSTATUS together with SecurityBuffer blob for the
   2.2.6 SMB2 SESSION_SETUP Response back to the kernel:

   - NT_STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED (more authentication legs are required)
     SecurityBuffer is most likely a non empty buffer

   - NT_STATUS_OK - The authentication is complete:
     SecurityBuffer might be empty or not
     It also pass a channel signing key, a decryption and encrytion key
     as well as the unix token ( I guess in the current form it's only uid/gid)
     down to the kernel

   - Any other status means the authentication failed, which is a hard error 
for the client

The PDU definitions are defined here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-smb2/6eaf6e75-9c23-4eda-be99-c9223c60b181

I think everything else belongs to userspace.

Such a "simple" design for the kernel part, would mean that ksmbd-mount would 
do what the
kernel part is currently doing, but it also means it will be trivial to plug 
the userspace
part to samba's winbindd in future order to get domain wide authentication.
