IIRC this ida is per SMB session, so it probably cannot be static.
And Windows, IIRC, doesn't like "just any IDs". Some versions of Windows
would fail the session login if server would return the first id == 0,
instead of 1. Or vice versa. I don't remember all the details, the last
time I looked into this was in 2019.

I think cifsd code predates XArray ;)

Agreed. Not sure I remember why the code does list traversal here.
