Originally this 16 byte maximum was due to NTLM and LANMAN hashing but has been
relaxed to 127 bytes by current Windows IIRC. I also need to determine if the
longer password requires NTLMv2
If we can verify that this is the case (127 byte limit) - let's change the
mount.cifs check - but a key question to ask is whether we should log a
password too long message (e.g. to dmesg) if the server type does not accept a
long password (e.g. if sec=lanman is specified).
