[PATCH 5.1 255/371] CIFS: fix deadlock in cached root handling

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 24 2019 - 16:12:34 EST


From: Aurelien Aptel <aaptel@xxxxxxxx>

commit 7e5a70ad88b1e6f6d9b934b2efb41afff496820f upstream.

Prevent deadlock between open_shroot() and
cifs_mark_open_files_invalid() by releasing the lock before entering
SMB2_open, taking it again after and checking if we still need to use
the result.
