But the current name for the dissector in packet-dcerpc_browser.c is
"rpc_browser".  I had just presumed that was intentional or PIDL could generate
it that way.  I didn't realize it was "manually" changed (presumably because of
the conflict with smb_browser).  Overall it looks like the dissector was
manually created from the start and never went through the PIDL (based on the
lack of a "DO NOT EDIT" at the top of the dissector.)

This patch needs to be submitted to Gerrit regardless, but I think that all of
the SMB BROWSER filters should also be updated to match the changed "filter
name" of the dissector if that's the route we're going.
