Subject: [34-longterm 173/196] CIFS: Fix memory over bound bug in cifs_parse_mount_options

From: Pavel Shilovsky <piastry@...rsoft.ru>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 4906e50b37e6f6c264e7ee4237343eb2b7f8d16d upstream.

While password processing we can get out of options array bound if
the next character after array is delimiter. The patch adds a check
if we reach the end.
