I agree that this is not an improvement (more of a cleanup), but I think
it improves readability (given that the single function runs for more than 
hundred lines), and skips a couple of unneeded checks.

Here's a fixed version (but this patch can be ignored if we feel so):


cifs_get_tcon() could return any of the following errors:
-ENOMEM/-ENODEV/EREMOTEIO. We should follow the DFS referral code path only
when we get -EREMOTEIO (STATUS_PATH_NOT_COVERED) from the server and not
otherwise.

Compile-tested only.
