Subject: [PATCH 5.5 067/189] cifs: dont leak -EAGAIN for stat() during reconnect

From: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@...hat.com>

commit fc513fac56e1b626ae48a74d7551d9c35c50129e upstream.

If from cifs_revalidate_dentry_attr() the SMB2/QUERY_INFO call fails with an
error, such as STATUS_SESSION_EXPIRED, causing the session to be reconnected
it is possible we will leak -EAGAIN back to the application even for
system calls such as stat() where this is not a valid error.

Fix this by re-trying the operation from within cifs_revalidate_dentry_attr()
if cifs_get_inode_info*() returns -EAGAIN.

This fixes stat() and possibly also other system calls that uses
cifs_revalidate_dentry*().
