Public bug reported:

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

119e489681f769e497637da16d5df530213f5720

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.
