IMHO, we are not fully required to fix this problem at first
because the mission of smbfs_hash() is to create unique i-node number.
(however smbfs_hash can be replaced by any hash algorithm,
though. Our smbfs_hash is called FNV hash according to google.)

I hope you also look at Darwin's code, because I believe it may
bring us some benefit easily if we keep differences small between Darwin's
and ours, since Darwin has many improvement.
For example, NetBSD had introduced SMBRQ_PUTLE16 macro but Darwin hadn't.
I think this doesn't mean SMBRQ_PUTLE16 is an essential feature.
BSD licensed Darwin's smbfs can be found at
http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/ .

BTW, I found we can obtain macros from NetBSD in
contrib/smbfs/include/netsmb/smb_lib.h.
