smb3: increase initial number of credits requested to allow write
Compared to other clients the Linux smb3 client ramps up credits very slowly, taking more than 128 operations before a maximum size write could be sent (since the number of credits requested is only 2 per small operation, causing the credit limit to grow very slowly). This lack of credits initially would impact large i/o performance, when large i/o is tried early before enough credits are built up.
