If I just have CONFIG_SMB_WIN95=y

and do find /share

I get:

/GILLC/WINDOWS/COMMAND/XCOPY32.EXE
smb_lookup: find COMMAND/ANSI.SYS failed, error=-23
find: /GILLC/WINDOWS/COMMAND/ANSI.SYS: File table overflow
/GILLC/WINDOWS/COMMAND/KEYBRD2.SYS

messages and I get a variable number of files( less than the total)

If in addition I enable core getattr

with

-f 3666

I get a repeatable count of all the files with no error messages. So it
looks like I need this for a stable and accurate file list.
