cifs: new mount option called retrans
[ Upstream commit ce09f8d8a7130e6edfdd6fcad8eb277824d5de95 ]
We have several places in the code where we treat the
error -EAGAIN very differently. Some code retry for
arbitrary number of times.
Introducing this new mount option named "retrans", so
that all these handlers of -EAGAIN can retry a fixed
number of times. This applies only to soft mounts.
