Subject: [PATCH 6.8 602/715] afs: Don't cache preferred address

From: David Howells <dhowells@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit 83505bde45e347f1451d007b3ddd7f06cee4c269 ]

In the AFS fileserver rotation algorithm, don't cache the preferred address
for the server as that will override the explicit preference if a
non-preferred address responds first.
