[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 60/64] ceph: fix potential race in ceph_check_caps

[Sasha Levin]

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit dc3da0461cc4b76f2d0c5b12247fcb3b520edbbf ]

Nothing ensures that session will still be valid by the time we
dereference the pointer. Take and put a reference.

In principle, we should always be able to get a reference here, but
throw a warning if that's ever not the case.
