From: Greg KH

3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Steve French <sfrench@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 13589c437daf4c8e429b3236c0b923de1c9420d8 upstream.

CIFS cleanup_volume_info_contents() looks like having a memory
corruption problem.
When UNCip is set to "&vol->UNC[2]" in cifs_parse_mount_options(), it
should not be kfree()-ed in cleanup_volume_info_contents().

Introduced in commit b946845a9dc523c759cae2b6a0f6827486c3221a
