[53/71] cifs: add fallback in is_path_accessible for old servers

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu May 19 2011 - 14:13:40 EST


2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 221d1d797202984cb874e3ed9f1388593d34ee22 upstream.

The is_path_accessible check uses a QPathInfo call, which isn't
supported by ancient win9x era servers. Fall back to an older
SMBQueryInfo call if it fails with the magic error codes.
