[PATCH 5.6 148/166] cifs: ignore cached share root handle closing errors

commit e79b0332ae06b4895dcecddf4bbc5d3917e9383c upstream.

Fix tcon use-after-free and NULL ptr deref.

Customer system crashes with the following kernel log:

[462233.169868] CIFS VFS: Cancelling wait for mid 4894753 cmd: 14 => a QUERY DIR

[exception RIP: cifs_put_tcon+0xa0] (this is doing tcon->ses->server)
#6 [...] smb2_cancelled_close_fid at ... [cifs]
#7 [...] process_one_work at ...
#8 [...] worker_thread at ...
#9 [...] kthread at ...

The most likely explanation we have is:

* When we put the last reference of a tcon (refcount=0), we close the
cached share root handle.
* If closing a handle is interrupted, SMB2_close() will
queue a SMB2_close() in a work thread.
* The queued object keeps a tcon ref so we bump the tcon
refcount, jumping from 0 to 1.
* We reach the end of cifs_put_tcon(), we free the tcon object despite
it now having a refcount of 1.
* The queued work now runs, but the tcon, ses & server was freed in
the meantime resulting in a crash.

THREAD 1
========
cifs_put_tcon => tcon refcount reach 0
SMB2_tdis
close_shroot_lease
close_shroot_lease_locked => if cached root has lease && refcount = 0
smb2_close_cached_fid => if cached root valid
SMB2_close => retry close in a thread if interrupted
smb2_handle_cancelled_close
__smb2_handle_cancelled_close => !! tcon refcount bump 0 => 1 !!
INIT_WORK(&cancelled->work, smb2_cancelled_close_fid);
queue_work(cifsiod_wq, &cancelled->work) => queue work
tconInfoFree(tcon); ==> freed!
cifs_put_smb_ses(ses); ==> freed!

THREAD 2 (workqueue)
========
smb2_cancelled_close_fid
SMB2_close(0, cancelled->tcon, ...); => use-after-free of tcon
cifs_put_tcon(cancelled->tcon); => tcon refcount reach 0 second time
*CRASH*
