Title:
  Enable CIFS GCM256

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Focal:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Groovy:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  CIFS GCM256 encryption is implemented in stable kernels beginning with
  v5.10.y. These commits are required to support GCM256 in linux v5.8:

  Risk of regression is quite low in the normal use case. GCM256 is not
  enabled unless a module parameter (require_gcm_256=y) or
  (enable_gcm_256=y) are specified at module load time.
