cifs: Use cifs_autodisable_serverino() for disabling CIFS_MOUNT_SERVER_INUM in readdir.c
[ Upstream commit 015683d4ed0d23698c71f2194f09bd17dbfad044 ]
In all other places is used function cifs_autodisable_serverino() for
disabling CIFS_MOUNT_SERVER_INUM mount flag. So use is also in readir.c
_initiate_cifs_search() function. Benefit of cifs_autodisable_serverino()
is that it also prints dmesg message that server inode numbers are being
disabled.
Fixes: ec06aedd4454 ("cifs: clean up handling when server doesn't consistently support inode numbers")
Fixes: f534dc994397 ("cifs: clear server inode number flag while autodisabling")
