As cifs_check_receive doesn't return any error if checksum doesn't match the original, readpages continues the read-ahead process and nothing else happens (I mean the request isn't time out, get killed and retried). So, if we don't kill the session in this case, we can simply return -EAGAIN and let the calling routine retry the operation itself.
