Subject: [PATCH 1/1] cifs: potential missing check for posix_lock_file_wait

posix_lock_file_wait may fail under certain circumstances, and its result is
usually checked/returned. But given the complexity of cifs, I'm not sure if
the result is intentially left unchecked and always expected to succeed.
