Public bug reported:

SRU Justification

[Impact]

* Microsoft requested patches to fix CIFS module being affected by a
silent data corruption bug affecting customers. Only 6.8 kernels are
affected, hence the scope being limited to Noble.

[Fix]

* Noble: clean patches from the following upstream LKML submissions 
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cifs/CANT5p=q22p+zxhw2vh-n+w-zre7zwnorgh9gvouogpv6vmf...@mail.gmail.com/,
 
https://lore.kernel.org/stable/CAH2r5mus4Cp0jH4y=_5ldcidftvoezwvajb1zoq3uze2g4e...@mail.gmail.com/):
 
* "UBUNTU: SAUCE: cifs: stop writeback extension when change of size is 
detected"
* "UBUNTU: SAUCE: cifs: Fix uncached read into ITER_KVEC iterator"

[Test Plan]

* Compile tested
* Microsoft tested

[Regression potential]

* Changes are localized to CIFS. Possible regressions could result in
unexpected behavior of CIFS driver.

[Other info]

* SF#00422224
