cifs: ignore ipc reconnect failures during dfs failover

Browse Source 
If it failed to reconnect ipc used for getting referrals, we can just
ignore it as it is not required for reconnecting the share.  The worst
case would be not being able to detect or chase nested links as long
as dfs root server is unreachable.

Before patch:

  $ mount.cifs //root/dfs/link /mnt -o echo_interval=10,...
    -> target share: /fs0/share

  disconnect root & fs0

  $ ls /mnt
  ls: cannot access '/mnt': Host is down

  connect fs0

  $ ls /mnt
  ls: cannot access '/mnt': Resource temporarily unavailable

After patch:

  $ mount.cifs //root/dfs/link /mnt -o echo_interval=10,...
    -> target share: /fs0/share

  disconnect root & fs0

  $ ls /mnt
  ls: cannot access '/mnt': Host is down

  connect fs0

  $ ls /mnt
  bar.rtf  dir1  foo
