Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0056/1017] cifs: we do not need a spinlock around the tree access during umount

From: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@...hat.com>

commit 9a14b65d590105d393b63f5320e1594edda7c672 upstream.

Remove the spinlock around the tree traversal as we are calling possibly
sleeping functions.
We do not need a spinlock here as there will be no modifications to this
tree at this point.

This prevents warnings like this to occur in dmesg:
