Subject[002/119] cifs: dont use CIFSGetSrvInodeNumber in is_path_accessible
2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com>

commit f475f6775465283494346663f201ad04810d2e8a upstream.

Because it's lighter weight, CIFS tries to use CIFSGetSrvInodeNumber to
verify the accessibility of the root inode and then falls back to doing a
full QPathInfo if that fails with -EOPNOTSUPP. I have at least a report
of a server that returns NT_STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR rather than something
that translates to EOPNOTSUPP.

Rather than trying to be clever with that call, just have
is_path_accessible do a normal QPathInfo. That call is widely
supported and it shouldn't increase the overhead significantly.
