Since bionic:linux-azure-4.15 is our base 4.15 azure kernel I'm
targeting it instead and xenial:linux-azure will receive the changes
automatically when rebased on top of bionic:linux-azure-4.15.

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
  There was a previous bug requesting the following two commits in 18.04:
  
  84a1f5b1cc6f ("cifs: Fix potential softlockups while refreshing DFS cache")
  2084ed57167c ("CIFS: Only send SMB2_NEGOTIATE command on new TCP connections")
  
  There is an issue now, which requires these commits in the 4.15 based
  16.04 kernel.
  
  Can these two commits be applied to 16.04?
+ 
+ (Those changes were include to 5.4 via the upstream stable updates
+ previously)
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+ The issue is hard to reproduce since it is related to issues during
+ reconnects. I will rely on Microsoft to test and also review the
+ changes.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ The changes affect only CIFS, so it would only affect linux-azure
+ systems that makes use of CIFS.
