cifs: use the expiry output of dns_query to schedule next resolution
We recently fixed DNS resolution of the server hostname during reconnect. However, server IP address may change, even when the old one continues to server (although sub-optimally). We should schedule the next DNS resolution based on the TTL of the DNS record used for the last resolution. This way, we resolve the server hostname again when a DNS record expires.
