[PATCH 4/7] cifs: translate network errors on send to -ECONNABORTED

[nspmangalore@gmail.com]

From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@microsoft.com>

When the network stack returns various errors, we today bubble
up the error to the user (in case of soft mounts).

This change translates all network errors except -EINTR and
-EAGAIN to -ECONNABORTED. A similar approach is taken when
we receive network errors when reading from the socket.

The change also forces the cifsd thread to reconnect during
it's next activity.
