cifs: connect to servername instead of IP for IPC$ share
This patch is required allows access to a Microsoft fileserver failover cluster behind a 1:1 NAT firewall. The change also provides stronger context for authentication and share connection (see MS-SMB2 3.3.5.7 and MS-SRVS 3.1.6.8) as noted by Tom Talpey, and addresses comments about the buffer size for the UNC made by Aurélien Aptel.
