cifs: cork the socket before a send and uncork it afterward
We want to send SMBs as "atomically" as possible. Prior to sending any
data on the socket, cork it to make sure that no non-full frames go
out. Afterward, uncork it to make sure all of the data gets pushed out
to the wire.
Note that this more or less renders the socket=TCP_NODELAY mount option
obsolete. When TCP_CORK and TCP_NODELAY are used on the same socket,
TCP_NODELAY is essentially ignored.
