Subject: [PATCH 5.18 249/879] smb3: check for null tcon

From: Steve French <stfrench@...rosoft.com>

[ Upstream commit bbdf6cf56c88845fb0b713cbf5c6623c53fe40d8 ]

Although unlikely to be null, it is confusing to use a pointer
before checking for it to be null so move the use down after
null check.

Addresses-Coverity: 1517586 ("Null pointer dereferences  (REVERSE_INULL)")
