In cifs_mount in fs/cifs/connect.c we guarantee that
volume_info->username is filled in (or we exit mount)

	if (volume_info->nullauth) {
		cFYI(1, "null user");
		volume_info->username = "";
	} else if (volume_info->username) {
		/* BB fixme parse for domain name here */
		cFYI(1, "Username: %s", volume_info->username);
	} else {
		cifserror("No username specified");
	/* In userspace mount helper we can get user name from alternate
	   locations such as env variables and files on disk */
		rc = -EINVAL;
		goto out;
	}

then in get_smb_ses (see below) when we allocate a new session we
either kstrdup successfully or we fail the mount:
	if (volume_info->username) {
		ses->user_name = kstrdup(volume_info->username, GFP_KERNEL);
		if (!ses->user_name)
			goto get_ses_fail;
	}


I don't mind adding defensive code in other places, but the reason the
null check is (only) in the find_cifs_smb_ses is in case an invalid
ses (being freed) was on the list.
