Subject: [PATCH] smb: client: port and use the wait_for_credits logic used by
 server

This simplifies the logic and prepares the use of
smbdirect_send_batch in order to make sure
all messages in a multi fragment send are grouped
together.

We'll add the smbdirect_send_batch processin
in a later patch.
