Shyam Prasad N bda487ac4b cifs: avoid race during socket reconnect between send and recv
When a TCP connection gets reestablished by the sender in cifs_reconnect,
There is a chance for race condition with demultiplex thread waiting in
cifs_readv_from_socket on the old socket. It will now return -ECONNRESET.

This condition is handled by comparing socket pointer before and after
sock_recvmsg. If the socket pointer has changed, we should not call
cifs_reconnect again, but instead retry with new socket.

Also fixed another bug in my prev mchan commits.
We should always reestablish session (even if binding) on a channel
that needs reconnection.

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.
