The struct field TCP_Server_Info.tcpStatus is often protected by the lock 
srv_lock when is accessed. Here is an example in __cifs_reconnect():

  spin_lock(&server->srv_lock);
  if (server->tcpStatus != CifsExiting)
    server->tcpStatus = CifsNeedNegotiate;
  spin_unlock(&server->srv_lock);

However, the variable server->tcpStatus is accessed without holding the 
lock server->srv_lock in cifs_can_echo():

  if (server->tcpStatus == CifsGood)
    return true;

To fix this possible data race, a lock and unlock pair is added when
accessing the variable server->tcpStatus.
