Fix tcon use-after-free and NULL ptr deref. Customer system crashes with the following kernel log: [462233.169868] CIFS VFS: Cancelling wait for mid 4894753 cmd: 14 => a QUERY DIR [462233.228045] CIFS VFS: cifs_put_smb_ses: Session Logoff failure rc=-4 [462233.305922] CIFS VFS: cifs_put_smb_ses: Session Logoff failure rc=-4 [462233.306205] CIFS VFS: cifs_put_smb_ses: Session Logoff failure rc=-4 [462233.347060] CIFS VFS: cifs_put_smb_ses: Session Logoff failure rc=-4 [462233.347107] CIFS VFS: Close unmatched open [462233.347113] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000038 ...

The most likely explanation we have is: * When we put the last reference of a tcon (refcount=0), we close the cached share root handle. * If closing a handle is interupted, SMB2_close() will queue a SMB2_close() in a work thread. * The queued object keeps a tcon ref so we bump the tcon refcount, jumping from 0 to 1. * We reach the end of cifs_put_tcon(), we free the tcon object despite it now having a refcount of 1. * The queued work now runs, but the tcon, ses & server was freed in the meantime resulting in a crash.
