[PATCH 4/7] cifs: smbd: Indicate to retry on transport sending failure

From: Long Li
Date: Mon May 07 2018 - 18:21:38 EST


From: Long Li <longli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Failure to send a packet doesn't mean it's a permanent failure, it can't be
returned to user process. This I/O should be retried or failed based on
server packet response and transport health. This logic is handled by the
upper layer.

Give this decision to upper layer.
