Thanks Tim for building the test kernel, and Hmpf, thanks for testing it
and confirming it fixes the problem.

Okay, so the problem is:

commit a738c93fb1c17e386a09304b517b1c6b2a6a5a8b
Author: Shyam Prasad N <[email protected]>

Subject: cifs: Set CIFS_MOUNT_USE_PREFIX_PATH flag on setting cifs_sb->prepath.

Looking at Focal, it seems Tim has submitted the revert and it has been
applied for the next kernel update:

Thanks Tim!

As for Bionic, it seems to still be applied to master-next, and hasn't
been tagged into a release yet:

Groovy seems to be in the same situation:

Tim, are there any plans to get the revert landed in Bionic and Groovy
for this cycle? I really don't want cause any regressions if we can
avoid it.
