If from cifs_revalidate_dentry_attr() the SMB2/QUERY_INFO call fails with an error, such as STATUS_SESSION_EXPIRED, causing the session to be reconnected it is possible we will leak -EAGAIN back to the application even for system calls such as stat() where this is not a valid error. Fix this by re-trying the operation from within cifs_revalidate_dentry_attr() if cifs_get_inode_info*() returns -EAGAIN. This fixes stat() and possibly also other system calls that uses cifs_revalidate_dentry*().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
