cifs: have ->mkdir() handle race with another client sanely
if we have mkdir request reported successful *and* simulating lookup gets us a non-directory (which is possible if another client has managed to get rmdir and create in between), the sane action is not to mangle ->i_mode of non-directory inode to S_IFDIR | mode, it's "report success and return with dentry negative unhashed" - that way the next lookup will do the right thing.
