Subject: [PATCH 6/7] cifs: smbd: Retry on memory registration failure

From: Long Li <longli@...rosoft.com>

Memory registration failure doesn't mean this I/O has failed, it means the
transport is hitting I/O error or needs reconnect. This error is not from
the server.

Indicate this error to upper layer, and let upper layer decide how to
reconnect and proceed with this I/O.
