- If UNC path for DFS is mounted to a drive with drive letter, the error "Too many levels of symbolic links" occurs when accessing to that drive. This is because GetDosDeviceW() returns unexpected string such as "\Device\Mup\DfsClient\;Z:000000000003fb89\dfsserver \dfs\linkname" for the mounted UNC path "\??\UNC\fileserver\share". This patch adds a workaround for this issue. Addresses: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2022-March/250979.html
