[PATCH next] smb/client: Prevent error pointer dereference
From: Dan Carpenter
Date: Wed Nov 20 2024 - 12:18:46 EST
The cifs_sb_tlink() function can return error pointers, but this code
dereferences it before checking for error pointers. Re-order the code
to fix that.
Fixes: 0f9b6b045bb2 ("fs/smb/client: implement chmod() for SMB3 POSIX Extensions")
