[CIFS] Fix mount failure when domain not specified
Fixes Samba bugzilla #4176
When users do not specify their domain on mount, 2.6.18 started sending
default domain instead of a null domain (which was the only way on some
servers to use a default domain). Users of 2.6.18 who did not specify
their domain name on mounts to certain common Windows servers that were
members of a domain, but not the domain controller, would get mount
failures which they did not get in 2.6.18
This fixes that issue and should remove complaints about mount
behavior changing.
