I have made minor updates (see earlier notes) to the Paulo/Aurelien's
Linux kernel client DFS patch series and remerged them to cifs-2.6.git
for-next (pending more test results)

I will wait on a respin of
cifs-Respect-EAGAIN-when-querying-paths.patch to let Paulo address
Pavel's comments, but after this rereview that is the only one I have
left out.

Even so I would like more review (and testing) if possible of the cifs
mount refactoring patch, and also these two (which I put as late as
possible in the series, in case we find problems with them and have to
back them out).

    cifs: Add support for failover in cifs_reconnect_tcon()

    After a successful failover, the cifs_reconnect_tcon() function will
    make sure to reconnect every tcon to new target server.

    Same as previous commit but for SMB1 codepath.
