The question is -- is theres still traffic going back and
forth, or is everything stalled? If there's still traffic,
it might be necessary to fix the timeout handling of the
individual smb inside cifsfs to look at whether the server
is alive vs an individual timeout. Much like what Windows
does with the SMBecho requests.

A sniff of this might still be very valuable, even if it is
huge.
