In smb2_compound_op we have a possible use-after-free
which can cause hard to debug problems later on.
This was revealed during stress testing with KASAN enabled
kernel. Fixing it by moving the cfile free call to
a few lines below, after the usage.
Fixes: 76894f3e2f71 ("cifs: improve symlink handling for smb2+")
