cifs: fix GlobalMid_Lock bug in cifs_reconnect
We can not hold the GlobalMid_Lock spinlock during the dfs processing in cifs_reconnect since it invokes things that may sleep and thus trigger : BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:23 Thus we need to drop the spinlock during this code block.
