Separate out all the 4 byte rfc1002 headers so that they are no longer
part of the SMB2 header structures to prepare for future work to add
compounding support.

In we face of an error during reading, we will call
cifs_discard_remaining_data() which calls
get_rfc1002_length(server->smallbuf). server->smallbuf contains the
SMB2 packet without RFC1002 length, so this will calculate the
remaining length incorrectly and that's why xfstests probably fails
with the patch.

In order to avoid similar problems we should consider re-examining
every use of get_rfc1002_length() as well as server->smallbuf in the
code.

I would suggest to split the patch into 2: the 1st part eliminate the
use of get_rfc1002_length() ...

...and the 2nd one removes RFC1002 length from the header.
