Currently, we allow the pending_mid_q to grow without bound with SIGKILL'ed processes. This could eventually be a DoS'able problem. An unprivileged user could a process that does a long-running call and then SIGKILL it. If he can also intercept the NT_CANCEL calls or the replies from the server, then the pending_mid_q could grow very large, possibly even to 2^16 entries which might leave GetNextMid in an infinite loop. Fix this by imposing a hard limit of 32k calls per server. If we cross that limit, set the tcpStatus to CifsNeedReconnect to force cifsd to eventually reconnect the socket and clean out the pending_mid_q. While we're at it, clean up the function a bit and eliminate an unnecessary NULL pointer check.
