Looking at patch
http://git.samba.org/?p=jlayton/cifs.git;a=commit;h=1c1e39d7cd344ef662c958cfad5e1a0df804ac74

which would remove the "sockopt" mount option (which is currently
unimplemented), I spent some time looking at the equivalent smb.conf
mount option ("socket options") which smbfs and samba client and
server use.  The explanation and examples of times it is useful to
override socket options (e.g. for setting low delay) seem reasonable.
It looks like it would be better to add parsing to allow setting these
to allow those who need to do advanced tuning.
