Subject: [PATCH 4.9 27/30] cifs: Always resolve hostname before reconnecting

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paulo Alcantara <paulo@...lo.ac>

commit 28eb24ff75c5ac130eb326b3b4d0dcecfc0f427d upstream.

In case a hostname resolves to a different IP address (e.g. long
running mounts), make sure to resolve it every time prior to calling
generic_ip_connect() in reconnect.
