Shyam Prasad N bda487ac4b cifs: avoid race during socket reconnect between send and recv ...

When a TCP connection gets reestablished by the sender in cifs_reconnect,
There is a chance for race condition with demultiplex thread waiting in
cifs_readv_from_socket on the old socket. It will now return -ECONNRESET.

This condition is handled by comparing socket pointer before and after
sock_recvmsg. If the socket pointer has changed, we should not call
cifs_reconnect again, but instead retry with new socket.

Also fixed another bug in my prev mchan commits.
We should always reestablish session (even if binding) on a channel
that needs reconnection.
