afs: Use op->nr_iterations=-1 to indicate to begin fileserver iteration
[ Upstream commit 075171fd22be33acf4ab354814bfa6de1c3412ce ]
Set op->nr_iterations to -1 to indicate that we need to begin fileserver
iteration rather than setting error to SHRT_MAX. This makes it easier to
eliminate the address cursor.
