From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 33f736187d08f6bc822117629f263b97d3df4165 ] 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.
