[CIFS] Fix plaintext authentication
The last eight bytes of the password field were not cleared when doing lanman plaintext password authentication. This patch fixes that. I tested it with Samba by setting password encryption to no in the server's smb.conf. Other servers also can be configured to force plaintext authentication. Note that plaintexti authentication requires setting /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags to 0x30030 on the client (enabling both LANMAN and also plaintext password support). Also note that LANMAN support (and thus plaintext password support) requires CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH to be enabled in menuconfig.
