Bug Description
Using cifs-utils to mount a multiuser SMB mount on Ubuntu Server 16.04 creates random "File name too Long" errors. Issue does not occur if I mount the share as a single user.
mount opts:
auto,sec=
Issue occurs on
Linux biocompute1 4.4.0-98-generic #121-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 10 14:24:03 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
cifs kernel module 2.8
mount.cifs version: 6.4
Issue does not occur on
Linux biocompute2 4.4.0-93-generic #116-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 11 21:17:51 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
cifs kernel module 2.8
mount.cifs version: 6.4
Debian has caught the bug, this is the exact same behavior and was logged the day before I had my issue:

I feel like it applies but I'm not familiar with Linux releases, I don't know if this change was backported all the way to 4.4.0 or if that's even the right name for that.
Example:
ls: cannot access '/mnt/csfg-
directory listing looks like:
drwxr-xr-x 2 awasylyk awasylyk 32768 Jul 2 2015 .
drwxr-xr-x 2 awasylyk awasylyk 196608 Apr 25 2007 ..
