Shyam Prasad N 83e6c09b01 cifs: reset iface weights when we cannot find a candidate ...

commit 9d5eff7821 upstream.

We now do a weighted selection of server interfaces when allocating
new channels. The weights are decided based on the speed advertised.
The fulfilled weight for an interface is a counter that is used to
track the interface selection. It should be reset back to zero once
all interfaces fulfilling their weight.

In cifs_chan_update_iface, this reset logic was missing. As a result
when the server interface list changes, the client may not be able
to find a new candidate for other channels after all interfaces have
been fulfilled.
