afs: Fix possible infinite loop with unresponsive servers
A return code of 0 from afs_wait_for_one_fs_probe is an indication that the endpoint state attached to the operation is stale and has been superseded. In that case the iteration needs to be restarted so that the newer probe result state gets used. Failure to do so can result in an tight infinite loop around the iterate_address label, where all addresses are thought to be responsive and have been tried, with nothing to refresh the endpoint state.
