[linux-cifs-client][patch] assign correct values to iov after error in kernel_recvmsg

[Steve French]

This doesn't look right ... smb_msg.,msg_control and msg_controllen
shouldn't be changed (if so could you verify with the linux net
mailing list).   Are you sure that the socket API corrupts the iov
(e.g. iov_len) on EAGAIN?

Did this patch cause a change in the test case?   It is probably
harmless since it sets the values to what I would expect ... but would
like to see if someone on the linux net mailing list could verify.
