I notice that 4.4.169 merged
60da90b224ba7 ("cifs: In Kconfig
CONFIG_CIFS_POSIX needs depends on legacy (insecure cifs)") add
a Kconfig dependency CIFS_ALLOW_INSECURE_LEGACY, which was not
defined in 4.4 stable, so after this patch we are not able to
enable CIFS_POSIX anymore. Linux 4.4 stable didn't merge the
legacy dialects codes, so do we really need this patch for 4.4?
So revert this patch in 4.9 as well.

Enabling this option will cause the cifs client to attempt to
negotiate a newer dialect with servers, such as Samba 3.0.5
