I'm not sold that the above function really belongs in generic code. It
seems like it might make more sense to have a cifs function that parses
out the host portion of the UNC and then pass that to a generic
function that does the in4_pton/in6_pton and then the upcall if that
fails?

Nice work on the set. Moving the DNS upcall into generic code is
definitely a good move.
