Subject: [03/39] cifs: NULL out tcon, pSesInfo, and srvTcp pointers when chasing DFS referrals

2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

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

commit a2934c7b363ddcc001964f2444649f909e583bef upstream.

The scenario is this:

The kernel gets EREMOTE and starts chasing a DFS referral at mount time.
The tcon reference is put, which puts the session reference too, but
neither pointer is zeroed out.

The mount gets retried (goto try_mount_again) with new mount info.
Session setup fails fails and rc ends up being non-zero. The code then
falls through to the end and tries to put the previously freed tcon
pointer again.  Oops at: cifs_put_smb_ses+0x14/0xd0

Fix this by moving the initialization of the rc variable and the tcon,
pSesInfo and srvTcp pointers below the try_mount_again label. Also, add
a FreeXid() before the goto to prevent xid "leaks".
