[PATCH] cifs: check pointer before freeing

From: trix
Date: Tue Jan 05 2021 - 15:23:18 EST


From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx>

clang static analysis reports this problem

dfs_cache.c:591:2: warning: Argument to kfree() is a constant address
(18446744073709551614), which is not memory allocated by malloc()
kfree(vi);
^~~~~~~~~

In dfs_cache_del_vol() the volume info pointer 'vi' being freed
is the return of a call to find_vol(). The large constant address
is find_vol() returning an error.

Add an error check to dfs_cache_del_vol() similar to the one done
in dfs_cache_update_vol().

Fixes: 54be1f6c1c37 ("cifs: Add DFS cache routines")
