cifs: Fix check for regular file in couldbe_mf_symlink()
MF Symlinks are regular files containing content in a specified format. The function couldbe_mf_symlink() checks the mode for a set S_IFREG bit as a test to confirm that it is a regular file. This bit is also set for other filetypes and simply checking for this bit being set may return false positives. We ensure that we are actually checking for a regular file by using the S_ISREG macro to test instead.
