From c1846893991f3b4ec8a0cc12219ada153f0814d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shyam Prasad N sprasad@microsoft.com Date: Mon, 2 Jun 2025 22:37:14 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] cifs: update dstaddr whenever channel iface is updated

When the server interface info changes (more common in clustered servers like Azure Files), the per-channel iface gets updated. However, this did not update the corresponding dstaddr. As a result these channels will still connect (or try connecting) to older addresses.
