Several users have reported this log getting dumped too regularly to
kernel log. The likely root cause has been identified, and it suggests
that this situation is expected for some configurations
(for example SMB2.1).
Since the function returns appropriately even for such cases, it is
fairly harmless to make this a debug log. When needed, the verbosity
can be increased to capture this log.

Based on our implementation of multichannel, it is entirely
possible that a server struct may not be found in any channel
of an SMB session.
In such cases, we should be prepared to move on and search for
the server struct in the next session.

After the interface selection policy change to do a weighted
round robin, each iface maintains a weight_fulfilled. When the
weight_fulfilled reaches the total weight for the iface, we know
that the weights can be reset and ifaces can be allocated from
scratch again.
During channel allocation failures on a particular channel,
weight_fulfilled is not incremented. If a few interfaces are
inactive, we could end up in a situation where the active
interfaces are all allocated for the total_weight, and inactive
ones are all that remain. This can cause a situation where
no more channels can be allocated further.
This change fixes it by increasing weight_fulfilled, even when
channel allocation failure happens. This could mean that if
there are temporary failures in channel allocation, the iface
weights may not strictly be adhered to. But that's still okay.

In order to scale down the channels, the following sequence
of operations happen:
1. server struct is marked for terminate
2. the channel is deallocated in the ses->chans array
3. at a later point the cifsd thread actually terminates the server
Between 2 and 3, there can be calls to find the channel for
a server struct. When that happens, there can be an ugly warning
that's logged. But this is expected.
So this change does two things:
1. in cifs_ses_get_chan_index, if server->terminate is set, return
2. always make sure server->terminate is set with chan_lock held

cifs_chan_update_iface is meant to check and update the server
interface used for a channel when the existing server interface
is no longer available.
So far, this handler had the code to remove an interface entry
even if a new candidate interface is not available. Allowing
this leads to several corner cases to handle.
This change makes the logic much simpler by not deallocating
the current channel interface entry if a new interface is not
found to replace it with.

The code to handle the case of server disabling multichannel
was picking iface_lock with chan_lock held. This goes against
the lock ordering rules, as iface_lock is a higher order lock
(even if it isn't so obvious).
This change fixes the lock ordering by doing the following in
that order for each secondary channel:
1. store iface and server pointers in local variable
2. remove references to iface and server in channels
3. unlock chan_lock
4. lock iface_lock
5. dec ref count for iface
6. unlock iface_lock
7. dec ref count for server
8. lock chan_lock again
Since this function can only be called in smb2_reconnect, and
that cannot be called by two parallel processes, we should not
have races due to dropping chan_lock between steps 3 and 8.

The only reason why cifs_sb gets passed today to cifs_try_adding_channels
is to pass the local_nls field for the new channels and binding session.
However, the ses struct already has local_nls field that is setup during
the first cifs_setup_session. So there is no need to pass cifs_sb.
This change removes cifs_sb from the arg list for this and the functions
that it calls and uses ses->local_nls instead.

Today, if the server interfaces RSS capable, we simply
choose the fastest interface to setup a channel. This is not
a scalable approach, and does not make a lot of attempt to
distribute the connections.
This change does a weighted distribution of channels across
all the available server interfaces, where the weight is
a function of the advertised interface speed.
Also make sure that we don't mix rdma and non-rdma for channels.

So far, SMB multichannel could only scale up, but not
scale down the number of channels. In this series of
patch, we now allow the client to deal with the case
of multichannel disabled on the server when the share
is mounted. With that change, we now need the ability
to scale down the channels.
This change allows the client to deal with cases of
missing channels more gracefully.

If the mount command has specified multichannel as a mount option,
but multichannel is found to be unsupported by the server at the time
of mount, we set chan_max to 1. Which means that the user needs to
remount the share if the server starts supporting multichannel.
This change removes this reset. What it means is that if the user
specified multichannel or max_channels during mount, and at this
time, multichannel is not supported, but the server starts supporting
it at a later point, the client will be capable of scaling out the
number of channels.
