Subject: cifs: initialize file_info_lock
From: Rabin Vincent <rabinv@xxxxxxxx>
commit 81ddd8c0c5e1cb41184d66567140cb48c53eb3d1 upstream.
Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>
file_info_lock is not initalized in initiate_cifs_search(), leading to the
following splat after a simple "mount.cifs ... dir && ls dir/":
BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, ls/486
