cifs: To match file servers, make sure the server hostname matches

Browse source

commit 7be3248f31 upstream.

We generally rely on a bunch of factors to differentiate between servers.
For example, IP address, port etc.

For certain server types (like Azure), it is important to make sure
that the server hostname matches too, even if the both hostnames currently
resolve to the same IP address.
