Subject: [34-longterm 142/179] cifs: check for NULL session password

From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@...hat.com>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 24e6cf92fde1f140d8eb0bf7cd24c2c78149b6b2 upstream.

It's possible for a cifsSesInfo struct to have a NULL password, so we
need to check for that prior to running strncmp on it.
