[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.7 12/23] cifs: cifs_pick_channel should try selecting active channels

[Sasha Levin]

From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fc43a8ac396d302ced1e991e4913827cf72c8eb9 ]

cifs_pick_channel today just selects a channel based
on the policy of least loaded channel. However, it
does not take into account if the channel needs
reconnect. As a result, we can have failures in send
that can be completely avoided.

This change doesn't make a channel a candidate for
this selection if it needs reconnect.
