Shyam Prasad N 7e0c0664e9 cifs: reset iface weights when we cannot find a candidate
commit 9d5eff7821f6d70f7d1b4d8a60680fba4de868a7 upstream.

We now do a weighted selection of server interfaces when allocating
new channels. The weights are decided based on the speed advertised.
The fulfilled weight for an interface is a counter that is used to
track the interface selection. It should be reset back to zero once
all interfaces fulfilling their weight.

In cifs_chan_update_iface, this reset logic was missing. As a result
when the server interface list changes, the client may not be able
to find a new candidate for other channels after all interfaces have
been fulfilled.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
