Use  LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS flags for default lookup to prohibit the middle of
symlink component lookup and remove follow symlinks parameter support.
We re-implement it as reparse point later.

Test result:
smbclient -Ulinkinjeon%1234 //172.30.1.42/share -c
"get hacked/passwd passwd"
NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND opening remote file \hacked\passwd

 v2:
  - reorganize path lookup in smb2_open to call only one
    ksmbd_vfs_kern_path().
 v3:
  - combine "ksmbd: use LOOKUP_NO_SYMLINKS flags for default lookup"
    patch into this patch.

I wonder whether the d_is_symlink() check should be done *inside* 
ksmbd_vfs_kern_path()? The idea being having one function where the 
required semantics are implemented without bleeding logic stuff in the 
callers. ksmbd_vfs_kern_path() could simply return -ELOOP if *any* path 
component is a symlink.

Then of course the question is how to handle this in some callers to 
make the decision what how to present the directory entry to the caller.

For example in ksmbd_vfs_readdir_name() I'm not sure if we return file 
metadata from the link target.

Thanks!

now. If it work properly, such symlink check may not needed.
