Subject[PATCH] CIFS: fix structurally dead code in smb311_posix_mkdir
Code at line: 1950: rc = -EIO; is unreachable. Hence, the function
returns rc with a value of zero and, this is not the actual intention
of this particular piece of code.

Fix this by placing the goto instruction just after the update to rc.
